Plein air painting on Singer Island




Every Tuesday morning for the past 3 weeks I've painted en plein air with Dennis Aufiery's outdoor painting class. We set up at the newly constructed (but not yet occupied) buildings at Singer Island's public beach. I'm focusing on painting cars and the everyday reality of the scene.

Figure painting from the live model


After doing a few live events, it became clear that I needed to work on figure painting. So I signed up for a class at the Armory Art Center in West Palm instructed by Dennis Aufiery. After some tentative first tries, this painting was the strongest of the session.
