First of all......
A great big thank you to all of you who sent in votes for me to win the Bubba Award. You are the best. I still don't know if I've won. I'll find out Saturday night at a special event that is a benefit for the Bahama Village Music Program. It's a great program and special to me. My first Key West studio was in Bahama Village.I felt the need to stretch........
Summer is a great time to tackle the little niggles that nag at you. So it's time to paint the things on my list I have been avoiding. One of them is people. I did a lot of figure drawing in college, but not much since. So last week I did a small series of nudes. They started out as serious figure studies, but them I felt the need to jazz them up a little. So I combined that with my secret envy to be a Victoria's Secret Angel.
