<span class="fbPhotoCaptionText">This fishing trawler doesn't exist anymore, she now sits at the bottom of the ocean somewhere. This painting was for my 'cousin-in-law'. The boat belonged to his uncle who passed away a little while ago....so it was very special.</span></div>

<br />I only had the 2 pic above to work with for reference material. My cousin wanted the boat to be painted as if it was going out to sea. I found this challenging, as I didn't have a pic as to how the actual boat looked from behind....and of course I wanted it to look like the 'Ronda Lene'.</div>

I always worry with portraits....I'm frightened of getting that 'likeness' of the person, but when I first showed it to my cousin Sarah, she burst into tears, so I knew straight away that I nailed it. I was very pleased and proud to be able to paint this lovely lady.<br />

Well, what does everyone think?....this one is a bit different to my usual nudes and life drawings.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today I attended a Life Drawing workshop - '<em>Where it all begins</em>!' </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
The workshop is designed to remove the self critic approach
to drawing and painting.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
This process evokes many feelings allowing the artist to take
risks in forming their own unique marks.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
The workshops are held at Murumba Downs, if anyone is interested in attending next months workshop, contact Julianne Janbroers or Todd Whisson on Ph 3886 2865 or email <a href="mailto:todd.whisson1@optusnet.com.au">todd.whisson1@optusnet.com.au</a> </div>

Well she's finished....well I think she is. There's a few things that bother me....I'm happy with the figure, it's just the background that didn't work out how I wanted. I guess 'artists' are often like that, there's always something that annoys us about a particular work, or sometimes they just never seem to be finished. </div>
