Logan #3 10x8
I think I've mentioned before that Logan is one of my favorite models. He takes it very seriously and stays very still without complaint. I think his face has a lot of gravity for a young guy.

did you never try to paint your model from nearer?
I am an artist living in Northern California. In 1993 I graduated from
U.C. Davis where I took classes from Wayne Thiebaud, Dave Hollowell and Roy DeForest. I currently teach high school art in Placer County California. On this blog I have posted 1000 paintings in as many days. I took a break from that strict schedule for a couple of years but since the beginning of 2014 I have been completing one small painting on a daily basis. The practice of completing a painting a day suits my disposition and aesthetic. I have also found that modeling this sort of daily practice for my students is important. I am making these paintings available on ebay. Thanks for stopping by and check back often if you like what you see.

Actually I usually do paint a closer view. In this one I wanted to pull back a little and include more of his body.
