Al Staszesky's American Consulate in Quebec

noreply@blogger.com (Janvangogh) — Mon, 28 May 2012 02:08:00 +0000

I found out this week that Al Staszesky was moving from Pennsylvania to Virginia. I have been taking his painting classes at the Delaware Art Museum on and off for the past few years. I have wanted one of his paintings for a long time. He was having a moving sale and so I made the drive from the Jersey shore to SE PA to snatch up a painting.

It really was a hard choice once I got there. Before I left, I decided that I would try and get one of his cityscape paintings. Preferrably Quebec. I was quite pleased this was available and decided to stick with my initial plans as it would have made the decision even harder. I just love the colors and the carefree composition and design.

Crying Giant sculpture outside of the Delaware Art Museum by Tom Otterness.

After the first break on day three. I redid the face. I like distortion, but felt that the face was too small from last week.

Went over some of the lines of the shapes. Smoothed the background and other strokes.

Pretty much finished. Need to work on the lights and darks.

Started a new pose the last half of class.

End of day three.
