Painting

The results of our shoot: This was one of the few "non-serious" shots, but it's pretty indicative of most of what we did, and I think of my personality, too.

We got a few good photos today, though we may have gotten more than just a few.. I'm biased because I was the model. It's difficult to look at yourself objectively.

A well directed sitting will have something of the quality of a good plan - a constant building and development of tension and excitement. The interest of the model and artist should both be carried along in the current of common enthusiasm. To make the sitting move in this way, the artist must work, must give of himself. An artist who finishes a sitting with his respiration, pulse and the part of his hair unaltered, has probably obtained very poor results. - William Mortenson
