February painting

20" x 16"
oil on archival panel

Well now that the crazy pace of the 30 day challenge has passed I can think about what I really want to paint. This is from my Thursday evening model session.  I think that I will start setting up models in my own studio in March. I would like to have more subtle lighting on the model. I find this one flat and harsh.
 I am still tinkering with my paints and think that I have found a good solution. I never liked the fast dry mediums which are great for outdoor plein aire painting but not what I like for the studio alla prima. I am making a slow dry medium that stays open for a few days. Much better for my approach to painting.
