In Marvin's workshop, when he is painting, it reminds me of a golf tournament, everyone so very quiet and intensely watching. So in the Atlanta class we would whisper, "he is choosing his #2 Silver Ruby Satin Filbert...a slight pickup of value 8, not too yellow, not to cool, not to warm, not too gray..holding the paintbrush, studying the canvas...he hits the tip of the nose...what a stroke...
I was thinking of you during your two weeks Marvin, wishing I were there. Your painting is gaspingly beautiful and the color is so wonderful, I imagine you must have enjoyed hanging up different colored backdrops and hitting on this perfect shade for her skintones. Can you show us some of your students' works? Please, please???
