Jimmie you need to take a vacation or wait until your daughter is as old as mine  Not a help is it!
Well I just felt the example of the Italian model was not doing justice for Rob's palette. Thus for two reasons; one, so I don't forget what I learned while going back to my commissions and two, to hopefully give you a better idea of color, I did a sketch of the other model from a reference photo.
I missed a lot of the little color details this way, but still loved this model so I will take this to completion. I hope you can see something better. Sorry if there is glare.
This is about 2.5 hours on linen, 16 x 20.
I'll also attach the photo for Holly.

Sorry to get off topic, but years ago I remember seeing an art instruction video rental service. They had hundreds of titles/artists and they came in the mail - then you returned them.

Beth, thanks for posting this. I'm very jealous that you and Holly got to go to this and I didn't! I also like your progression your painting here.

It would be dishonest of me not to tell you how challenging Rob's palette is after using earth tones for so long. But I am determined to give it a go.
So the painting I started above has metamorphosed into what I am calling "The Wild Fruit Woman". Since Rob had natural and artificial light on this model - he did this on purpose - I thought I would have fun doing two things, one, giving his skin colors a go, but also using the "colorist" palette to the fullest with nothing other than fruit! I have also had fun giving a wax medium a try in the actual fruit painting.
Here is an update, as I say - give it a giggle, for I can't tell you how much fun this has been to paint.
I am not sure of the number of you that got to take in one of Rob's workshop demo's at the PSOA, but he is awesome... and lucky me - I am traveling to Ireland with him this September!
