T. Seated

graphite, ink, and gouache
30.5 x 22.9 cm (12" x 9")

I didn't make that much progress with this painting. It was done during a three hour session, although with breaks for the model and a late start, the actual time I had to work was more like two hours. I was too concerned with not losing the drawing to really attack the painting. In the end this is more of a coloured drawing than a painting. There is nothing wrong with that, however; at least nothing that I know of.

The model is a contemporary dancer who is off this week to Vancouver to attend a butoh dance workshop. I believe that the workshop is the 12th Annual Wreck Beach Butoh Workshop, given by Kokoro Dance.

T. is a super model.
