I call these Demo-nettes.
You know I am doing classes since several years now and there is one class I did very often:
MV Jar's Beginners class, a weekend class that gives an introduction in my way of thinking while painting. About theory behind it and technical aspects. Students of different skill levels are enjoying this class, if you like you can find some reviews of them on MV.
Well, these demo-nettes are the models I paint for explanation via the class and I never manage to finish them. I just take them out of the class up to this big plinth to have them with me in the class as inspiration and examples for the students. Yesterday I had to make a new plinth, because the old one was too small. Now there is new space for some more! Really need to paint a yellow one soon, but I hate to paint yellow :D
Funny story about the third one from the left can be found here:
You see she is damaged. While I was packing for the trip to France for the latest painting class I was sitting on our studio couch and felt something under my feet. As I looked closed it was her. A painted demo-nette grinded off from colour by too many feet. Ridicilous and weird, but well, as she was broken in different parts I just repaired her ... kind of :)

I think it is really beautiful to see them in such a colour variety, but well some specific colour schemes are still missing.
Hope you like them too!
Keep on happy painting!

That is very cool to have them all there. Nice mate. Did you put them in a random order or in the order of the classes that you have completed them in? :) So maybe we could see if they show any progress themselves ( except even now I don't see much difference meaning that they are all top shelf pieces from classes ;) ).
ReplyDeleteRandom for sure ... just checked how they fit together proberly without picking their eyes out.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, it's really nice to see these demonettes all aligned.. I have to say, the pink one in the middle is my favorite :) The purple too, and... ok stop.
ReplyDeleteShame on me, I didn't follow your trip during your beginner's class. But, where have you been in France exactly ? It could be interesting one day, who knows..? ;)
Bye !
(sorry for my english !)
Random order, but you made sure every blue is nicely separated by two others haha
ReplyDeleteLooks really nice, seing them all together. They would be the rainbow troopers (or netts?). Would love to join one of your workshops in the future.
