Yesterday I did a second effort at the figure in motion.. slightly more finished than the last. There is something very mesmerizing about the drawing technique of Rob Liberace... it's a 3 hour long dvd, but I love watching it and seeing this fantastic drawing come to life from the first mark on the paper to the very last detail. I am hoping to get a couple more of his dvds at some point, particularly The Alla Prima Portrait and The Figure Sketch in Oil. After all, I am a painter, so I'd love to watch Liberace do a painting in the same manner as I love watching him do a full drawing. Though, I'll have to wait until I either have some money ($85 per dvd), or I can find them on ebay and luck out with a winning bid at what would hopefully be a lower price than $85.

On another note, I received my official confirmation from Blue Springs, so I am definitely set to go for the art show on March 24-25. I will be sure to let everyone know how that goes.
In the meantime, I am working on a little series of still life paintings, and today I did a small and simple still life with pears. I'll be doing several paintings like this, but of course I'll also be continuing to work on portraits and figures.
