Each year the Florida Strawberry Festival hosts a Fine Art Show, sponsored and staffed by a group of volunteer East Hillsborough Art Guild members and their friends.  It is a nice show, raising funds each year to benefit our student scholarship program.  There were some fine entries this year, as in the past, and I try to take the opportunity to demo at least a couple of the 11 days of the Festival.  I am posting the demonstration painting from this morning.  I used my photo reference of a young girl for the pose and fleshtones in this 8X10 oil painting on masonite panel.  I am happy with her as a 3 ½ hr. study, so I think I am going to frame her.  Honesty is her name.
