Figure Drawing 2-22-11

Here are a few sketches from tonight's figure drawing.

Full moon painting

8x6, oil. This is the view out of our 3rd floor skylight of the full moon over the lake tonight. It was a real fun one to paint but challenging as I was constantly turning the light on and off while I paint. ON while I mixed paint and OFF when I needed to view the scene without glare.

Large Painting

Here's a larger painting that gave me fits. I haven't worked large for awhile and it was difficult to stay loose. I went with a Zorn Palette of titanium white, yellow ochre, cadmium red, and ivory black.
