Michelle




It has been a while since I have worked with the model, so I was relieved and inspired to find that it was 'all still there' while working on this study of Michelle. There is so much that can be expressed when working with the figure. Energy, emotion, history - all of these elements, and more, come to the fore when studying a person in repose. It's one of the things I love about figure painting.
