This delightful group of artists was eager to learn new techniques and produced some very attractive bozzettos. By the end of the workshop I was losing my voice, but I think everyone went home with several examples of artwork they had never done before. Good times.
My portrait project will resume shortly. I think the break for the workshop, where I worked in a totally different medium and style, was a good one for me. I'm ready to attack the 35 remaining portraits with renewed vigor. Stay tuned.

I am so envious of your students! Alright Carol, you need to have a book published so many others can learn your technique. That's all there is to say...
Carol, THANK you!! This was a most awesome workshop!! I had a blast...BUT, you remain the master of these beautiful pieces...
Look at that cute Saundra Lane Galloway in there! And how striking you are yourself, Carol. I don't recognize anyone else from blogland, but it sure looks like you had a fabulous turnout!!
This looks fantastic. So much fun.
Only 35 portraits left? I am kind of sad... My sister asked me on Friday, what happened to the daily portrait newsletter? Said she looks forward to it every day. She had somehow missed the one that explained your absence - she will be thrilled when you come back!
Looks like a great bunch of women, who had a great time learning and just being together.
Thanks for the group photo!
Great work by all...
Wish I could have been there!

I have been asked the meaning of the word bozzetto. I refer you to the letter written by Robert Genn in the Painter's Keys.

I love the term bozzetto. It is a sketch, or an experiment, not necessarily a finished work. I think of bozzettos as stepping stones to learn something new. Sometimes, they are good enough, as Robert says, "to march out on their own."
Carol, thanks for a fabulous introduction to your metals and mixed media techniques and for sharing your methods. It was a great group of artists to work with. I plan to post maybe later today.
Carol, you are just the most amazing artist! Congrats on the workshop - and I'm with Sheila in hoping you will write a book!
Nancy posted her 83 photos taken at the workshop. What an awesome record of all the things that went on during the workshop.

Welcome back, looking forward to the upcoming portrait. Eugene

Carol!
I would've loved to be there!
I'm suprised that everyone made such tiny pieces. I'm guessing that's due to time constraints and them just learning everything, huh?

I wish I could attend that workshop. Too bad I am in India... sigh!
