One reason I like to teach is that it leads to things I'd never otherwise create. Here's one from this week's class.
Flowers, Oil on gessoed paper, ~ 8" high. Click to enlarge.
Originally this was a demo sketch, showing a student how to start with a wash of green and a fast block-in, and then build layers to create the flowers. It was going to be a throwaway, and then ... we both liked it, so after class, I kept working.
