Our Model, Ashley

Our Model, Ashley

For the last of four classes, I brought in a live model. Well, it was with some apprehension, but each student proceeded. This was not to be so much as lesson in portraiture, in which one might strive for a likeness. No, from the start I explained that they were to study our model, looking for the values and shapes. Well the results were more than satisfying and each student was thrilled with their results. I was so pleased as well and enjoyed seeing the varied styles each student possesses. These are beginner students and I couldn’t be more proud of them.

About Lisa's Palette

"My paintings are often admired for their realistic qualities through the use of light, shadow and colour. Capturing the beauty within the rustic landscapes of my entitled series, 'Farms of Simcoe County,' has become my passion. Keeping my camera close at hand allows me to capture the images as I come across them, while I use my artistic gifts to seek out particular points of interests in these images. Painting on location brings a connection to the subject, through not only sight, but sound and smell as well. My goal is to produce paintings that give the viewer a sense of calmness and relaxation.”
