Rachel2- in progress


Rachel2 - first version

We got this far, then decided to redo the painting almost entirely, starting with the face. When the face changes, the background follows.


Rachel2 - second version


Rachel2 - detail face

In the first one I was happy and smiling. In the seond one I was sad and smiling. Wes paints what he sees.

But this face is way better. It's got the color breakthrough of JERRY and WES2, with the fineness of RACHEL1 and WES2.

"I think painting two of everyone is part of the form now," said Wes.

We're taking a short break, while Wes is in two shows and I'm snowed at work. Next step is we're going to start visiting Seattle galleries to see where we want to have our show. Jerry, who played & sang amazingly at Wes's solo show opening last week, has agreed to play our opening as well.
