Painting from Live Models
After many years of figurative work, endless sketches like these fill the vault..
20-40 minute paintings from the live model by David Heskin in egg tempera
There's something charming about the attempts made to capture a given moment..short sessions where life exposes its form to be recorded by the artist without concern for the finished work, and without the price tag of a commercial creation.
These studies exist solely for the improvement and research of the artist. Their purpose is fulfilled by being a recording of a few moments of devotion to the craft.
