Stage 1. 55 x 35cm on card. My reference is from the life session last Saturday. Sketchy drawing in red conte crayon and then acrylic paint using cards and basically what's left on the palette ( as usual ). Not aiming for anything like the realistic work during the life session. In the mood for a semi abstract and on a bigger scale. Using a card I bought when preparing my daughter's wedding guest work. Listening to Best of U2

I think that if you stare at Mandala's for long enough, some believe that levitation will occur. I wonder if it happens if you stare at the life model long enough!
