sketch of Gloria

While going thru sketches I came across this sketch of Gloria, I like it and think I will use it in my class starting Friday at the Woodlands Art Gallery.  Don't exactly know how we will get 13 students, a model and myself in that room, but we'll see.  Will go over tomorrow and check things. out.

reworked piece

This piece has bothered me since day 1.  I have reworked it, but am still not sure it suits me.  It's very hard to photograph because of the metallic paint.  Have been studying Gustav Klimt, but can't seem to get the hang of it.  The detail in this photograph is lost.
Trying to photograph the metallic paint is very difficult.

My painting below won 3rd place the membership show at the Watercolor Society of Houston.  It proves my point, they always like the more traditional pieces.
