Yesterday I did this little sketch during my portrait painting class in my studio. It is on a tiny 7" x 5" panel that I scrubbed some raw umber onto. I started with the drawing in paint above and used an eraser to remove some of the pigment. I meant to take progress pictures with the color stages, but I forgot. Below is the final sketch.
Friday was the opening reception of "Favorites" at
Strecker-Nelson Gallery. I have several drawings in the show. Jamie came along with me and I was pleased to meet some artists I had been itching to meet for some time, including
Dean Kube and
Louis Copt. I also had some great chats with Dan
Coburn, Diana
Dunkley and Ralph
Fontenot. After such a busy weekend, I am spending today recovering before getting right back at it in the studio tomorrow.

very nice. Sorry we missed the opening. But sounds like you had a good time. I have met Dean a couple of times briefly and he is very nice. Great work. Love this piece you are working up. Very classical.
