Sketch Group Show

Nancy seated (2013)
Oil on canvas

Of all my recent paintings, this is my favorite. The model was a member of the Cincinnati Art Club named Nancy. I really felt like, with a minimum of fuss, that I was able to capture her energy and personality. She was dressed so beautifully in her coat, hat and scarf, and she has such a calmness and serenity about her face. The art club does a "Sketch Group Show" at their gallery, where the pieces have to be pieces done in the Sketch Group, and I decided to submit this piece for this show.
