Did little walking, standing, and kneeling figure studies to get
the scale right for Boomlift. These are two inches or less and need to be a bit
smaller. Want to convey everything simply with a few tones and angles.
Played with color too. Practicing before I commit to the
canvas, on the 'measure twice, cut once' theory. I'll need to keep warm morning
light coming from the right. It's like a puzzle made of flesh and light and shade.

An Atlanta native, I lived in northern California in the sixties, worked in front of the camera in Europe in the seventies, and earned my living as a writer for twenty plus years. As a contemporary realist painter, I'm fascinated by the skin of the world, the bounce and skitter of light on textures, and the push and pull of shadows on form. See my finished work on my website, www.virginiaparker.net and follow my works in progress here. I currently live 1.4 miles from the house I grew up in.
