September 5 – 7, 2014, I participated in a workshop at Tina Garrett’s studio with the famous artist Romel de la Torre. It was fascinating to watch him work.

After his demonstration we tried our hand at painting one of the two models that were posing for us.  I missed the second day of the workshop to attend my nephew’s wedding, but was able to complete a portrait the next day.

The model’s name was Leslie, but I don’t know her last name.  I have drawn her before at another drawing session in Overland Park, Kansas.  She is a very good model and I enjoyed painting her.
