SUSAN'S . . . PLAYING AGAIN!

VEILED pastel + gold leaf I'm quiet once again in my corner over here, but have been  working away. Above, VEILED, is one of my current pieces. Have been playing with figures inanimate objects wrapped  in tulle. Fascinated with the slight sheerness, as well as the  look with the fabric draping over the face and body. Need to take a better image with correct lighting, but did want to throw this out there since I've been MIA.  

THE SHROUD pastel & gold leaf SOLD Just received yesterday a phone call from the Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club that my painting has sold!  So thankful for the Patrons and Supporters  of art. Everyone of you enable artists to continue with this profession.

CHARCOAL SKETCH Sketching here and there as samples for my Thursday evening drawing classes at UCSD Extension. Fortunate to have such a small, intimate and fun-loving  group of adults! This past week they drew each other in 12-minutes spurts. Interesting to see their developing individualistic styles!   This is a 10-minute sketch of myself as a prepared sample.
