The following 16 posts are from the first figurative painting of the semester. The 9-hour painting had to be done from a live model and minimally 18"x 24". No limits were put on material, compositional, or stylistic choice.

We are continuously looking to build solid images in frame that convey a strong sense of narrative and storyline. Color and formal aspects have been taken into consideration to critically analyze the success of these compositions and outcomes.

You will have one week from today to post your critical feedback to your classmates' images (add via "COMMENTS" under each image). Be considerate and smart with what you have to say: What would YOU do next if it was your painting? Where are the strengths/ weaknesses and most importantly WHY???
