Well, so much for warmer weather…it was even colder today and I woke up to snow!
I had to move my set-up to a warmer part of the centre, which gave me slightly less exposure, but I think my model would have frozen solid if we'd stayed in the centre circle! One bonus to that is having a more interesting background to paint, which will help me get on on Thursday, when my model can't make it.
I was ready by about 11:15am and I set up my board to do some sketching. Giuseppe soon arrived to do a photo shoot, which was GREAT! It was really fun being part of his work and he showed me some of the pictures digitally – they look fantastic! Elaine had two artists to respond to at once and she managed really well.
Re-sketching Elaine's face made such a difference and I felt really inspired to paint her. On top of that, we treated ourselves to truffles and a cappuccino, which inspired me no end!!
A generally successful day today :)
