Portraits in the Regional Gallery

our regular monthly portrait group at the Hawkesbury Community Arts Workshop this week  had a special portrait session at the Hawkesbury Regional Gallery in stead of our building on the WSU campus. This was in conjunction with an exhibition with an Anzac theme currently on display in the Gallery.

Our sitter was attired in a makeshift nurse WW1 uniform and despite a little bit of disorganization in the beginning, about 12 artists produced quite a variety of different works!

I managed a 40 minute portrait sketch with charcoal

a 40 minute oil sketch about 20" x 20"
