Graduated school at The Grand Central Academy

I have just concluded my three and a half years at the Grand Central Academy. I have much gratitude for all the teachers and fellow classmates that have made these past few years an amazing experience!!

I will continue to teach at GCA Friday nights (Cast Drawing) and Saturdays (Cast Sculpture). Please stay in-touch, more new adventures to come!
Here is my last figure painting done at GCA as a student. The stages of progress: Color study then start to finish of final pass modeling.

Filip in progress

Here is my final portrait of Filip in progress.

drawing and color study in progress

Here is the current painting of Filip I am working on. I've attached my finished block in, then showing my transfer and one day color study process. Unfortunately I only get 8 days for the final painting, so I will be doing only the portrait for the final painting instead of the whole torso. I will update again soon on the progress of the final piece.

Octobers Painting.

My painting of our lovely model Vassilia.

New works

Here is my finished painting of Jessica from last month and my new drawing for this months painting. I'm transferring this weekend, ready to start painting on Tuesday.

I am also starting some new sculpture projects, photos coming soon.

Back to the grind at GCA.

Here is one of the two paintings I am painting this month at GCA. Hope to get the other one up soon.

It is hard to tell from the photo but the portrait, neck, and chest are final pass, rest still ebauche. More photos to come.
