Portrait painting demo

Here are a few photos from my recent 1 1/2 hour oil portrait painting demo I did to promote my art classes at the art store, Opus.

It's always fun to challenge myself to go out and paint a decent demo in a situation where the lighting and setup are somewhat uncontrolled.  Trying to set a pose that reads clearly with the uncontrolled light and I explain everything that I'm doing while I'm painting is fun and challenging.  Keeps me on my toes ;)
