Study
One session study from a model at Fleisher Art Memorial. Life-study from a two-hour pose at Fleisher Art Memorial. I have always loved the immediacy and freshness of a study or even a half-finished painting.

Sculpting
Clay on an armature from a model at Fliesher Art Memorial. The sculptors are kind of a club that take these classes ongoing. One of the figure drawing instructors urged us to take clay modeling classes and it becomes a challenge for new students and a way of “keeping in shape” for experienced sculptors.

Who Knew? Sheboygan, WI.
On a trip to the midwest we stopped in Sheboygan and found it a beautiful town on the lake with two outstanding free museums. The contemporary art museum, John Michael Kohler Arts Center, is right in town, established in and around a Kohler family home. The John Michael Kohler Arts Preserve is just outside of town and features three floors of outsider art collection from around the world.

Local History
Above, landscape painting Looking Toward Sellers Hall from Mill Bank c.1818. Sellers Hall is on the horizon, center left
I was surprised and pleased to find that Charles Willson Peale was a friend of the Sellers family. Here in this community Sellers Hall and Sellers Library are well known for being a stop on the Underground Railroad.
“The painter Charles Willson Peale, (1741-1827) who voted for the abolition of slavery as a member of the Pennsylvania Assembly in 1780,[9] was a frequent visitor of Sellers Hall. His distant view of Sellers Hall (1818) is an early example of American landscape painting.[10] Peale’s daughter, Sophonisba (1786-1859), married Coleman Sellers (1781-1834), and Peale’s granddaughter, the landscape painter Anna Sellers (1824-1905), lived at Sellers Hall.[11] ” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sellers_Hall
