Had a great session yesterday at the Arts Club. I love this model.

As I Paint It by Alan Furneaux | Make Your Own Book

I have 4 new prints available and coming out shortly. Here is one of them.

I thought I would like to work this theme of Salsa dancing and practice more. The problem I have at the moment is blending skin tone in acrylic which I havn`t cracked yet. Also I would like to put more detail in . So I`ll need to practice a lot with drawing compositions rather than go direct on to the canvas and some  sketching in the Salsa clubs to go more of an understanding . .

Finished at last. I can now move on !!

Introducing the Band

still a way to go yet.

Sorry about the colour change .Its raining outside and I took a shot in the studio.

Painting is coming along very nicely. Slowly slowly adjusting each figure and learning as I go. Really enjoying this.

Thanks Phil for your comments.
These pics have been taken in the studio so the colour is slightly different than if taken outside.

Detail . I am working on figures making the girls look girlier and getting some light and shade in the skin. While keeping it Naive.

Went to Germans Cuban Salsa class last night. Fantastic so I will put German in the middle and call it Germans Rueda. thats said `Herman` as the G is an H  in Spanish i believe.

Have to try harder to make the girls look more like girls.
My daughter loves this so far .....she said "is that you in the black dress" . !

I am working on another Salsa Dancing picture. Learning as I am going on. Certainly my interest in Salsa Dancing and my new found interest in getting dressed up ( originally a steroid induced black out ) seems to be at the fore..I am off to salsa tonight and will take my sketch book .

More drawing last night. poses were  short so could only do the head which I enjoyed.
Working on my biggies in the studio . And I have a surprize for you!!??

 I was tempted to shoot the poor thing dead this morning but carried on thanks to a comment from Angus . And I have to say it`s coming on....Thanks Angus
