Christmas Relay Demonstration

For the last five years, at the Watts Atelier Christmas Party six of the instructors have done a "relay demo" from the live model. This year we were fortunate enough to have Fred Vrabel pose as Santa for us. Each instructor does a 15-20 min sitting on the painting and then passes it on to the next instructor.

    Awesome Santa portrait! Was it nerve wrecking to know that your initial layout would be the foundation for everyone else's painting?

    Yes it was, but no more so than if I was doing a painting by myself. They are all so good that I know they will only make whatever I do even better.
