St. Patricks Day Dress

Acrylic on Canvas covered board  14" x 18"

March 17, 2009. Live Figure at Bucktown Center for the Arts, Davenport, IA. Our model chose to wear a green dress for St. Patricks Day. I had just joined the group known as " A Fine Line " in January and was attempting to paint live models for the first time. Each night has one pose consisting of 3 - 45 minute sessions. This was one of the first paintings I completed that had a "likeness" of the actual model. There are alot of changes I would make to it now. I find that is easy to say after I am done and have the luxury of a little extra time to evaluate it.
