I painted this one with regular heavy body acrylic paint, which dries really quickly, unlike the Golden Open that I love and most often use. Not sure if I will perhaps include another couple or another dancer. Probably not. There's enough happening without additional figures. These figures are from a painting that I did last summer after observing the dancers following the August rodeo in Junction, Texas. What a rich night for a figure painter that was! I not only drew furiously, but snapped lots of pictures for later use in the studio. This painting is 10 x 8" on panel and although I was taught that you should vary your brushes and brushstrokes in a painting, I used a #8 bright for the whole thing. Just lazy, maybe. Thanks for stopping by!
