Day 1769 Atlanta Artist Center

Zaftig 140 lb HP Fluid 22×30″

Loved our model today. And am sad I didn’t get her name. She was fabulous. Just had a great glow of joy about her. I have never painted in 140 # hot press before so this was totally experimental.

Her gesture poses were phenomenal but that’s for tomorrow.

Earlier

I tried doing a grisaille later but since it was the first time I wasn’t too sure of how to go about it on darker skin. I would use the same colors that I would end up painting her-peacock blue, burnt sienna, burnt umber, raw umber, cobalt and ultramarine.

The only other color I used was Holbein red orange.

Work in Progress will decide when I look at it after the Atlanta monsoon blows over. #fluid #atlantaartistcenter #watercolor #art #painting #artist #painter #aquarelle #georgia #atlanta #charlesreid #watercolor #artist #painter #aquarelle #lifestyleblogger #lifestylechange #drawing #sketching #holbein #drawing #sketching #lifemodel #nude #nudesketch #nudeart #nudemodels

Day 1768 Malias

Everybody’s favorite place to eat in Aiken. A good spot to celebrate life’s occasions like winning a ribbon at state art Show. I dragged my friend Tom along after Saturday life modeling while we were in Aiken. Then I drew him while we waited for food. The food is always good and the service is top notch.

Colored with Caran d’ache Neocolor ii in my stillman and birn alpha. This is actually about 10x 20″
