Hi Julie,
Mary emphasized establishing the large forms and color relationships right from the outset. She works in the tradition of the Boston school which retains the academic tradition of drawing but uses full observation of natural light and color as influenced by the impressionists. She pushed me to put down the colors that I saw from the outset, even when I was still trying to establish the drawing and likeness of the model.
I wish these colors here were even richer in depth, but I find it difficult to get full bodied color in a short period of time. I don't want to try to continue as I do not have the model available, so it is what it is at this point.
But I can definitely say that Mary's workshop was among the best and most helpful that I have taken. She was wonderful.
