5th Week of Life Painting

5th week of life painting at Adult Education.  I decided to stand in a different place in the room and see how that went.  It was a bit of a squash but once everyone started it was good.  The concetration in the room was palpable.  I prefer it that way to begin with and then I feel the room settle, to carry on with the pose.  Today was concentrating on cool tones which in its nature commands a limited palette.  I found this a really enjoyable exercise as I told myself to address the models face before the body and the effect is a more finished peice of work.  There are weaknesses which given more time I would address ( the legs ) but the effect is a more pleasing finish.  Half term so no class next week.  Painting without brushes next time.
