Due to some excellent fortune, I’ve been asked to be a live art model not once, but TWICE in the last month. I sat for a group of intensely talented artists some of whom where 85+ years old. I can only hope to be as artistically inclined and vigorously ass-kickingly awesome of a person when I grow old. Many of the artists were generous enough to give me a portrait or two, here are some of them:
The last sketch is a collaborative effort between Holly Hughes and Charles Stenger. Ugg, so good! I’ll save the tale of “Life Model: Episode 2″ for another day, mostly because I still haven’t photographed the sketch I was given from that sitting.
Eat your hearts out,
Adroit artist, photographer, omnivore & house plant nurturer.
It is neat that Holly and Charles were there. Holly is an old friend of mine from Socorro and I have visited them in MO a few times in the last couple of years. Their house and studio is amazing!
