Harbor Dream

I took some photos in October of a new model who, sadly, was never able to come back to the studio after our first meeting. He is a ballet dancer, and was a wonderful and eager model. After a photo shoot of the dancer modeling alone, I invited Elias, who had been studying in the bedroom, to model as well, since I much prefer to paint couples. They were wonderful together, and I took a great many beautiful poses of the two. Sadly, the photos all came out rather dark and grainy because of a broken tripod, but here are a few of the poses which inspired my recent painting, "Harbor of Dreams." I'll post more photos from the photo shoot soon!

Check it out the rest on my blog.
