Quick Poses from Pop Up Art Session

These are the five acrylic sketches I did from the model during our Pop Up Friday session last week.  We did 5 poses ranging from 10 minutes to one hour.  Super fun and a great way to work quickly and just have fun.

Last Week's Pop Up Sketch

Here is the 24x30 acrylic painting I did in one hour at last week's Pop Up.  I gessoed the back of some old blue prints and they make great practice painting paper for quick studies.

Plein air/studio painting.  I prefer painting on location, but seem to need studio time for final completion.
