Thank you both for your compliments.
Beth, this was a three day demo. With all the yapping I do while I paint I would figure I spent approximately ten hours of painting time. It wasn't my intention to finish it, although it would have been nice. It's painted very thinly and is at the point where I feel I could really begin to put paint on it. I'll be doing a four hour alla primo demo at Binders in Atlanta this Saturday where I'll be starting with a more loaded brush from the get-go and trying to get a more finished yet painterly look. This is the technique I use when I do portrait color studies for my commissions.
Lynn, I am getting further with each demo I do. Since I do a lot of 'splainin' regarding what I'm doing, and why, a great deal of my consciousness is on my students and not nearly enough on the act painting, relative to what I'm used to in my studio. Obviously I'm serving a different purpose here, however I'm either getting better at multitasking or becoming schizophrenic.
This was a six day workshop. As you know I'll be in Atlanta for two weeks starting next week so I hope to develop that demo painting more toward a finish. We'll see.
