Nearly original work

I do a lot of work with photos as reference material. Often doing as literal translation as possible. This is not always the case, as shown here and on any of the "here"s. The only other comments that come to mind at this moment are that I could certainly do Plein aire work. The previous post has two actual "in front of me" works. The same thing could be said about life models. I have gone on about this in the past but have not yet caught up with my good intentions. I just reread the post linked to the "here"s. Please do check them out.
