Monday night and Wednesday morning: One Step Beyond...

The portrait studies we did in class were deliberately over-simplified. There were probably moments when you wished you could have mixed up more subtle washes halfway between the dark and middle values, for example, or where a fourth or fifth color might have been fun to try.
If there were no guidelines, would you want to move toward greater subtlety and specificity, or toward a personal expressionism? Perhaps both.
Start another portrait, and see where it leads you.

Ted Nuttall

Schuchin

David Lobenberg
Gretchen kelly
