Steven and Karin,
Thanks, you guys...(I'm a ham?)...for the kind comments. I am also considering a "big giant head" demo. Last week I taught a workshop where I painted a big giant head. A 24x20 canvas with two eyes, a nose, mouth and chin. By making the painting six times life size, it was very easy to see the strokes and passages that even on close viewing are difficult to see. It was also possible to take the painting to a "finish" in just a few hours, where this would be a difficult process when there is hair, background, and clothing to cover.
I did a brown eye and a blue eye, "not" nose and "not" mouth, alla prima, in the manner of Franz Hals.
Off to Philadelphia. Hope to see many of you there! (We'll miss you Steven...)
