I am doing a water color (my arch nemesis) online class while in isolation. I have to say it has been a lot of fun and a timely learning experience. I already new water color was the most unforgiving medium. It requires a lot of prep, planning and patience my three weakest suits. I am very sloppy and can get paint on me just looking through a catalog. I did learn though that there is something very soothing about the 3 P's and yes if I really, really have to I can do it.
For one of our assignments I used the face and shoulders of one of my favorite Mondigliani paintings Cushions. I love his skin tones and the casual elegance of his women. Part of the assignment was to embellish, enhance or remake the painting in some way. I had trouble imagining her any other way or with clothes on but I thought maybe I could modernize her. Make her a very 2020 model.
