Students make great models. Studying hard and sitting still in the process. Who could ask for anything more.

About Me
- Wilfred
- In my current art practice, I am exploring the subtitles of oil paints, particularly within the the realm of portraiture. My focus is on the human face because that's what we all see everyday. It's there ripe for the picking.

Perfect models :)
Have you ever showed them a sketch like this? Do they ever notice that you sketck them?
I've actually never shown a sketch to my "models"... don't know why. I believe some of my models have noticed me sketching them and they either didn't want to be the subjects of my attention and got up and walked away or just ignored me.
It might be the serious scowl I have on my face while i'm drawing that inhibits them from coming to see what i've done.
That's interesting. If they knew what comes out at the end, or knew they'd be featured on your blog, they'd at least be amazed, probably voluntering the next time!
:)
