And here are some paintings from this semester. The top one is my final painting of the class, composed of two images, one of a model, and the other of a caribbean background. The second is a painting of my girlfriend, Arika. And the last two are studies. More to come.....

Portraits

So it's been a little while since my last post. It's been crazy busy as I'm sure everyone knows. Anyway, I thought I'd post a couple of portraits of some great models from my figure painting class. They were roughly around 4-6 hours each.

Caravaggio Master Study

So here is a Caravaggio master study in Oil. It was really difficult trying to replicate this piece (St. Jerome in Mediation), but it was definitely rewarding in learning a different technique. Thanks for taking a look!
