Diane Mannion, DENNIS, 10x8" oil
Artists in the Venice Portrait Studio at VAC were thrilled today to have a handsome model with lots of character pose for us in his golf hat! My favorite way to spend a rainy Friday afternoon painting with artist friends.
This painting was first sketched in burnt umber with a small brush. Then while the model took his break, I mixed up piles of flesh tones, shirt, and background colors. The session was two and a half hours, but excluding breaks... only about two hours to paint. There's never enough time!

Dear Dianne, very nice capture of Mr. Dennis
You did very well in two hours painting time! He looks like quite a character...
