I am happily back in the studio. I managed to get 3 more bozzettos painted today. I am going to present them one at a time! Not much of the painted collage papers are winding up visible, but I think they still have an impact on the total piece. This is Scott, our nephew. He was just learning to read when we got married 50 years ago and now he has more grey hair than I do. Ah, what a miracle hair dye is!
A wonderful family celebration a few weeks ago netted some great photos for my files. I do get tired of painting my own face.

Oh what a fabulous piece!! I do hope you will give this to him as a gift because it is spectacular! These are called bozetto's?
Thanks, Sherry. This is one segment with nine sections. I only cut them apart if I ruin one of the pieces. I may paint a larger individual piece, later.
Hi Myrna,
I like your title, made me laugh. Its always fun seeing what you're up do and this is a most excellent portrait!
Amazing work. I have loved your work for many years and you still amaze me.
Thanks Peggy and Barbara . Such good friends to be found on the internet.
Love the way you simplify the light/shade.
Thanks, Jo. I have been experimenting with PS Touch app for iPad. It is a version of Photoshop Elements for digital devices. If you have it, try Charcoal. It separates the values into light, dark and mid. Very useful for simplifying.
Ahh, the texture and the values!!! --love the effect.
