I am Loving Guennadi's Class and Oils

This was week two painting with oils and I am having a blast.  Guennadi Kalanine is a great instructor and seems to know just what instruction/criticism I need to get to the next stage.

I continued to work on the still life that I started last week.  It took me a whole class to get everything painted and then a second class to refine it.  I am very pleased with it as my first painting.

I need to get more aggressive and work more quickly if I am going to take my oils outside.    I suspect that "Alla prima" oil painting especially if done "en plein air" isn't for cowards.
