The pictures above are of my second painting for figure class at the Des Moines Art Center. I added two pictures because the top one shows the composition and the bottom one has a better representation of the colors. Yellow light casts can really do things to the colors!!
These are graphite studies in my sketchbook with some watercolor. This will be our model for the next oil painting sessions at the Des Moines Art Center. The first two are the ones I spent the most time on. The third study I spent 15 minutes, so it looks a little more loose and the lines are less detailed.
Cindy DiBlasi has given me this blog award! So here are the rules:
1. Must display award.
2. Must link back to the person who gave it.
3. Choose 7 other bloggers to pass the bloggity love onto.
4. Let them know they have been chosen.
Here are my choices:
Alright, now I am back to my crazy "list of things I cannot accomplish in one day but seem to expect of myself anyways"!! Wish me luck!

Great figure paintings Candace! I really miss taking a painting class, it's so invigorating.
And yes, I have a whole laundry list of things I need to accomplish for at least work due by Monday. Ads ads and more ads. I should post some of them. I had to do an illo for myself for IF or else I would have gone crazy!!!
Good luck girly!

It's gonna take you a long time to finish that animation if you do each fram by hand like that.
Hi Candace!
Your figure drawings are wonderful... wonderful use of color which really adds to the dimension and feel of your model. It seems like you are really enjoying this class. Thank you as well for the Blog Award! It is such a compliment to receive one from an artist that I admire as well.
Have a good weekend.
Very very nice Candace. I really admire your fine art as well as the children's illustrations. I'd love to find the time for a figure drawing class...
