I painted this nude on top of paper that I previously printed with my stenciled patterns. The effect is different than the usual way that I stencil pattern after doing the figure painting.

Nude #364- 23.5"x36"-watercolor, gouache, pastel + graphite on blueprint paper
Here is another painting of a nude on architectural blueprints. I find perfection in the accidental layout of the underlaying blueprint. At a distance the small drafting lines create a tableau on which she rests her chin and arm. This is a very satisfying way for me to work when the happenstance results are so aligned.

Nude #363- 23.5"x36" - watercolor, gouache, pastel + graphite on blueprint paper
I painted this tonight on an architectural blueprint paper. I like the underprinting and random design that is introduced. It gives it texture and makes you want to look closer.

This nude was done quite some time ago. She was suspended hanging there on the page and needed some grounding with a bit of pattern and color.

Spring has sprung- 7.5"x12.5" mixed media
HAPPY EARTHDAY!!!!!!!!
Life is springing from black winter branches. Soft shapes and shades of green are fluffy as buds burst. It is my favorite time of year. I savor it as I move through nature each day observing the birth of life in many forms.

Nude #357- 18"x24" watercolor, gouache, graphite + pastel on paper
This painting is from a 25 minute pose. I like the colors that appeared on the page - it usually is not something I plan when I am trying to get as much fast drawing + painting done in such a squeeze. Then when I get the painting home I consider what the background colors will be based on the nude. Teal and turquoise are appearing in my paintings a lot these days,
