Wes 2
Here is one of our paintings, in progress. At this stage, Wes has finished the face, using a stunning blend of the techniques from "Jerry" (portrait #3, already posted) and "Holly" (in progress). I have made the first mark on the background. It's part of a quote from Eugenio Barba: What you must do, you must do -- and ask no questions. The white of the t-shirt is the paper itself, an incredibly thick, stiff, rough-textured Punjab watercolor paper.
By the time we finish, the quote will be buried, as will most of the yellow. A secret of the painting.
