Nude Study and Paris Still Life 2 over Memorial Day Weekend

Yesterday I posted about Paris and the Still Life I did 20 years in Been Busy getting ready for Paris and Aix.   Well, I did accomplish what I wanted at my studio today and also took some online videos which I’ll try to share here.

Here’s the first painting - and I actually like it better - it’s a nude study of a model named Elizabeth and it took about an hour (if I had more time I might have worked on it longer…but who says a painting is ever really done?).

Nude Study on 5-26-07

When I look at my work, sometimes I get a “shock” - it’s as if I can feel my energy in it; and reading the World View of Paul Cezanne by Jane Roberts confirms, I think, all that goes into work - all the energy transmitted by touch - all  that can felt but not spoken.

And here’s the movie I made as I painted this painting.  I was thinking, and mentioned Amy Crehore’s name because she’s often asked me about how Brooklyn Artist Gym looks - well, a movie is worth at least several thousand words!
