Callie

leaning back and draping her hair, Callie’s hair is the subject of this gradient ground. Though slightly exaggerated in length, her natural curls beautifully capture light and color. Callie was a college studio mate of mine and let me paint her hair in this after I was running up on time for an assignment, luckily since we were already in the studio, I was able to get started immediately. Brevard College had a lot of that- where artists used other artists as subjects simply out of ease of proximity and our love for each other.
