I thought I would share the results of my
self-portrait. It must have been the seventh attempt. I am still too large,
overwhelming the smaller version of my husband with which it will be coupled.
Nevertheless it is done and I am free to embark on other adventures. This
afternoon I will be taking in some life drawing. My intention is to concentrate
on portraits, portraits of the model and of the participants. I am practicing.
I find I am rusty with the art of portraiture. I have two weeks to limber my
lack! I have been invited to create three portraits over the course of an
evening while some really good jazz is being played. Pierre-Paul Bugeaud and
his buddies always provide a delicious musical treat during the event. As usual
JazzArt will include several artists who create wonderful pieces for auction
at the two intermissions. It is a fundraiser for CAVA. Whoever wins the draw
for the raffle will be my model for a pencil portrait, three draws, three
portraits. Something a little different, challenging. I am so looking forward
to it! Live is good.
P.S. Here is the invitation:
