Wednesdays with Melissa


On Wednesdays I go to a nude, long-pose group - the model is nude, not the artists! It is run by a fine figurative sculptor, Melissa Moe. We painters and sketchers set up away from the model leaving a big space around the podium for the sculptors to roll their stands around, sculpting from every angle.

This painting of the lovely Shannon was completed over 2 sessions, the 19th and 26th of September. I was trying to capture some of her otherworldly, ethereal beauty.
