Nude Figure Painting, 5" x 7" Oil on Panel

"Figure Study II"Click here to bid.



This is the second nude figure study I've done in a small format. I'm really enjoying the challenge of these. But I especially like the opportunity that working in a small format provides for making changes and experimentation. Don't like the color - change it. Don't like the shape, change it. Viola! Great way to do studies for larger pieces. I've done this before, don't know why I stopped. But I'm going to paste a big reminder to myself on my wall to do several before starting a large painting. Now I just have to remember to read the darn thing.

Love the skin tones and movement in the body!

So you live in Washington! I have a friend who lives up in Port Orchard... in fact she was the mayor for a while.

I'll be back to visit.
