Hi Janel and John,
Janel, it was great meeting you also. We had such a great group of artists to interract with for two whole weeks. You did a magnificent job of facilitating the whole workshop, such a gracious and generous spirit you have. I do hope to see you again some day!!
John, I took out a loan to attend this workshop, knowing that it would be worth going into debt for. I learned in two weeks what I need to really progress in my painting, an investment in my education worth more than the cost of all the college art courses I have taken over the past three years!!!
Marvin's palette is amazing. One evening we invited to bring in some paintings for critique. One very talented student was very generous with us and brought a dozen paintings. He is so talented and had some great portraits. But one really stood out above the rest, it was the painting he was working on in our workshop. The color was so realistic, it made all the difference! I must admit that when I returned to my studio Sunday I went through all of my art books and set aside all books on portrait painting, to be donated to a charity!
I have a better image of my painting to post, which was taken with a better camera and a image of Marvin's painting to show.
Enjoy!!
