Dear Subscribers,
Suffice to say, this is a strange and challenging time. I, for one,
could use the mental break, so let's just get to it ;).
New painting. Here is my original reference. I took this photo in 2016
during a reference-gathering excursion. This is outside of Benaroya
Hall in Downtown Seattle. Sometimes it takes a few years for a photo's
potential as reference to materialize. I love how this man's leather
jacket reflects light. And a bold foreground element is a gift--a
precious find!
