Here's the imprematura for my next painting which is supposed to start Wednesday if I don't have any more sick kids home with me.

I decided on green this time because my tubes of green paint remain suspiciously plump.  I don't think I've every really used them.  If I want green I usually just mix it, which is pretty much never anyways.  Green is a puzzle to me.  I find it quite a confounding colour.  I realize that my coloured pencil work I am currently working on is a frog series.  Green frogs.  That being said, I am only now getting a hint at how to work with the colour in coloured pencils.  It's still a mystery to me in paint.

The top drawings are from Friday's drawing group.  Mr. P. thinks this is my favourite model and that my face lights up when his name is said.  I do like this model, but I can't say he is my favorite.  He is a large ball of masculine energy with a gutteral sounding Portuguese name that's fun to say, that's all.  One of my favourite models actually sat beside me last Friday afternoon and will be modelling this week.  You'll remember him from previous drawings as the Kurt look a like with a British accent.  Not that you can see his accent;-)  He too, like Kurt, is a teacher.  Makes me wonder if his students know what he does on the side;-0

As for who makes my top favourites in the female category, well, they are all skeletal in shape and don't get hired nearly enough.

I've also started working on a couple more that I'll post once I get a bit further on them.
