The Fall/2012 Weekly Figure Drawing at WAG Studio/Gallery organized and moderated by JJ Jiang is abot come to a close.  Many thanks to those who have participated in those sessions and I hope that you have enjoyed them as much as I have.  Human figures remain eternally as the most fascinating subjects to draw and they are the most challenging subjects to draw in the same time.  "Drawing is the probity of art" said Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. We must keep improving our drawing.  Here are the few samples of my fall session drawing work.  Welcome your comments!

Fall/2012 Long Pose Figure Study @ WAG

While the Cary weekly Figure Drawing is still going on Thursdays, this morning we just had our first Fall Long Pose Figure Study session.  The model did a great job, the background music was very soothing.  I truly enjoyed spending my Saturday morning with my artist friends this way. 

Painting of OMA

My painting "OMA"  won M. Graham Merchandise Award in the Watercolor Society of North Carolina 67th Annual Juried Exhibition 2012.  Cheers!

Learning to See class @ WAG

It was our 5th "Learning to see" class.  I bought some grapes for today's exercise, using a small portion of them for the set, eating the rest while I was doing the demo and painting.  I did a bit more than I normally do for the demo.  I was'nt thrilled with the end result of my painting, but I think the students did well with theirs.
