Maylon Clarke said… - Thanks Charlee, thought maybe I should not have mentioned that, but I do not think that is right, I love this site and we are all here to learn, and I know ,I personally, have been told a few things that have really improved my art, and would never have seen on my own. We should say what we think, the artist is then free to take it, or leave it. I personally hope people do that to my work as well. It is lovely to have glowing comments, but it does not help us advance as artists either. I was surprised no one else spotted that.
Regards Maylon

C J said… - Charlee, your drawing of Gloria Swanson is very well done....but remember to do MORE life drawings. In time with these classes you will see the difference in your art. I took life drawing classes all the way through my time at the university, even through the Masters program..as it kept me centered and I was not copying anything. Photos are very good for references but go to the live anything. It is challenging at all turns and at times mind boggling because you will be forced to think things through. Go back to the old masters and see the difference.

Very atmospheric! Great painting.
I agree with Turtle. However, remeber that limestone is basically blue/grey; the greens are usually impurities or growths like moss and algae. Although it is deposited in layers, it is eroded by water, so has lots of verticals and wavy strata, both…
Superb Mary. Can't give advice on fiddling......it's a habit I've yet to break!
Beautifully painted.
Stunning!
Fantastic portrait! Very good likeness. Beautiful eyes.
