Super Bowl Sunday at The Tucson Artist Colony was a big hit. Romel dela Torre was our guest artist. He put on a wonderful demo session with the help of Stephanie Birdsall and her accomplished daughter as the model. We watched Romel paint the portrait wet into wet from beginning to end. The entire session was around 4 hours with a few short breaks. Romel shared valuable insight with us down to the nitty gritty of brush selection palette layout. Even as a beginning art student I learned a great deal yesterday watching the drawing and block in and I was particularly interested in when and how Romel put in his darkest darks.If anyone is interested in a workshop with Romel contact Stephanie or me (Susan). It would be great to have him here in Tucson for more than a few hours.

i have troubles with paint, even more so when it's a living example. he paints beautifully, you must feel very inspired after watching someone work with such ease.
