Chris,

Lindsay is such a wonderful punchy study. I love the chromatic harmony and the poetry of the tonal relationships. You stopped at the right point, beacause I like how the white weaves through the brown backdrop, picking up a few color solos and duets in between. It's great to be inspired.

And Mischa,

That Shanks is equally awesome. Great color and tonal poetry, and what confident handling of paint! How lucky of you to see a live demo; I've only seen a couple by him over the years (1989, and 1996 in Philadelphia).

Thank you both.

Chris, for speed, I painted Alex Tyng in the very last minutes of my portrait class last Monday. She was so kind to pose for us! Alex wants me to post it. I am embarrassed because it looks like the time that was spent, which wasn't much. Gosh it's Monday again already tonight ....maybe I'll snap a picture of it in the daylight to share (in a new thread) later on today.
