Here's another study of Pedro that I did at the end of June. I ended up doing 2 oil studies and 2 watercolors of this model. I definitely enjoyed doing the quicker studies.M.

I have 10 of these mini tubes of oil paint I picked up on a trip to Madrid 10 yrs ago(!).<br />
<br />
I have fond memories of an older gentlemen packing the tubes of paint with freshly mixed pigments.<br />

From Max:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>I
just finished my new painting, "Unemployed On Line". In this painting I
am concerned with "good" and "evil", the "have nots" and the "haves".
Corporate profits are soaring while people are losing their jobs and
their homes. People are being restricted and channeled and losing their
rights.<br />A tragedy and injustice in our times. I wrote an article
about the development of this painting which will be printed in the
September issue of the "Artist's" magazine.</i></blockquote>
Congratulations to my mentor for completing this epic painting. It was an honor to be one of the people chosen to pose for this!M.

I just realized that I hadn't posted an update of the state of mini paintbox. I added this hinged wood flap a while back. I cut it out of one of my old palettes and use it to hold my oil and Turpenoid cups. After I flip the flap open I clip the cups to the edge and then clip it under for storage. M.

I already knew it is not fun to carry a wet painting on the NYC subway and now I know it is equally not as fun on the LIRR, especially at rush hour! I definitely want to find a way to consolidate my painting gear so I don't look like a circus freak when I step on the train. Maybe I should try to make a heavy duty backpack to hold my Russian easel? Hmm</div>

I just ordered Richard Schmid's "The Landscapes" from Utrecht this week. This large format book is chock full of inspiring outdoor scenes that will keep me busy for a while pouring over the masterful technique. I am headed back to Central Park this Sunday for some plein air painting, so Schmid's "Sunday Morning Central Park" is an absolutely perfect painting to study before I head out. </div>

I found a red watercolor pencil that I forgot I even had, so I put it back in action. A water soluble pencil is fun to use to get down the initial drawing quickly. I think some new colors are in order though...maybe a brown and a blue.M.

Round 2 on my plein air painting in Dumbo. Everyone warned us that we were going to croak from the heat, but we (Barbara, Ken, and I) set up comfortably on a bench under a tree. B brought her shade buddy for extra sun protection, we had a fine selection of cookies and beverages, and a breeze at times. It was good. We even ended up in the middle of a wedding ceremony, so I had to take a break from painting to witness a couple wed on the rocky sand portion of my landscape view.<br />
<br />
Later that evening I cracked open my new watercolor sketchbook and painted this green girl from a black and white photo. I'm starting to love the idea of using a limited palette...<br />

I noticed in a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150870417601461&set=a.212611621460.141145.563766460&type=1&theater">photo of David Kassan's subway demo</a> he is using bucket seating. I never thought about it before, but it is a great idea for plein air painting because you can use the bucket first to carry your supplies and then flip it over to use as a seat. It would be cool to create a little cushion on the top for comfort and then a fabric insert to hold/easily remove your supplies. Maybe the insert can be zippered on top too... I have an 18" inch grape juice/wine bucket that would be perfect to try this out with!M.

"Unemployment Line", a work in progress by Max Ginsburg.<br />
<br />
Here is an outline of how he begins painting a figure composition:<br />
<br />
1. Conceptual <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1340291930_0">pencil sketches</span>.<br />
2. Painting studies of each model.<br />
3. Compositional pencil sketches based on the painting studies.<br />
4. Place a one inch grid over the compositional study to be used which, in this case, is 4" x 8".<br />
5. Stretch a canvas, 40" x 80", the same proportion as the sketch, and draw a 10" grid.<br />
6. In charcoal approximate the position and size of the figures.<br />
7. Paint, in a direct alla prima manner, each model as a loosely
painted block in from life. So far in this painting each model posed 3
or 4 hours.<br />
8. When all the models and background have been
blocked in the development of the forms and the composition will
proceed, with the models returning for several sessions each.M.

2 week pose. Shadow coming in from the right not on actual painting. Can anyone recommend a camera that does not cause distortion for under $500-600? </div>
