Here's a sketch I did with my art group this week.The model had so much soul. Who knows why
that happens, but she was perfect for me -- with
only an hour to paint her. Some models just
give off so much energy, and this model was like
that. Quiet, and peaceful -- she seemed complete.
So my sketch flew. On the break I so enjoyed
talking to my artist friends. They can be very
funny and informative. I learned that each cell
in the human body has six feet of DNA! Think
of that. It seems impossible doesn't it? And mysterious,
and wondrous.
So here she is. I didn't learn her name, but wish
I did. And click here to listen to the song that
inspired the title.
Have a capturing-the-feeling day.
The model's energy certainly radiates here. nice bold use of colour.
