Pat, Thanks! That portrait was done in the workshop from both a photo and life. She was sitting in front of us, with warm light on her cool shirt. I learned all about that in the workshop. Fun stuff. I won't be posting my big project as it is to remain confidential per client request, but I must say that I wrote my client and requested he schedule the photo shoot and I would never have done that before studying with Chris. I just didn't think I could really create my own photo shoot. I have always been slave to whatever photo I got LUCKY enough to get. Now I know what I want and I will insist I'm allowed to create it. Cool huh?
Chris, good memories around that model! She was shutting her eye to get on "mark" and we had not raised her chair up yet. That was a good week for sure.
