What SUPER work! I am most impressed and inspired!!
Which one is yours, Chris (other the the great flowers!)? Could you post yours too, Sharon?
When I am freer (and richer) I would definitely love to do one of these workshops.
What a great teacher you must be, Sharon.

Here's one of my ballerina paintings, some roses, and Madame Knettell looking stern.
I want to add the following about the workshop:
If you think Sharon is tough on-line, you should see how picky she is in her workshop. She beat us mercilessly until we had the EXACT shade of warm pink for a sash on a tutu. She was meticulous about the color set up and was also meticulous about matching the exact colors on the canvas. When these things happen there is an incredible surge of beauty.
And Sharon pushed herself so hard during the week as well - shortly after a knee operation, she marched herself up to that model over and over and over again, matching her palette knife color to the model, until she was satisfied. Sharon, they don't make too many teachers - and artists, need I add - like you any more. You're a very impressive person all around. I learned so much by being around you, not only about color and artmaking, but about living the life of a true artist, with honesty and integrity and spirit. Thank you so much.

Oh good grief!
Egad!
I just saw this! I had GREAT students, needless to say! It was so much fun!
My piece disappointed me! My background was dark blue and not dry, even in 2% humidity, overnight with Galkyd, so I THE GREAT MASTER  had to BLOB the colors in. I would mix the perfect color of pink instead of painting I had to knife it in to get the correct color. It was quite a loose painting needless to say! I was also wardrobe mistress and could not mix the paints 'til I got the models into a corsetted costume which ain't easy! But thank God I had several exceptional students who got it so right. I am SO PROUD of them. The results were gorgeous!
The pastel demo turned out much better, but I left it at the school for an auction and I have no picture.
Aren't the results fabulous!
Alex, sure if you want an old Yankee crank.
Carlos, how much wine?
