Thanks for that link also Linda,

I didn't see the latest issue of AA so this was a nice surprise when I checked in this morning.

I participated in a weekend workshop with Dawn last November at our NC Portrait Artist workshop in Raleigh. She and Edward Jonas were just wonderful to be with. Watching her paint with such a limited palette and simple brush collection just was inspiring. I also love the way she constantly reminds us to compare our values of our paint, palette (the actual wood palette) and colors within our model/background to achieve likeness in all areas. I may not always use that palette of colors but I know that I can if I want to - thanks to Dawn's workshop!
