Had a great experience yesterday. Exposure Detroit hosted a Natural Light oudoor portrait Educational Seminar. Tim White, Deana Barrett, and Ann Gordon were kind enough to take time to share their knowledge of portrait photography. I had the pleasure of following Ann around. I definitely learned a a lot and am very grateful to her for so graciously sharing her information, and I enjoyed her patient and energetic teaching style.

We opted for the cheaper group lessons, and there was just this one other nice person taking lessons with us.
Lesson 61. Did a drawing/tracing of a picture on Lesson 60, then shaded it today. Please, please, please, give me feedback!

The thing is, I already know how I look in loose, long tops with no waist shaping. They put 20 phantom pounds on me; I can't work this look, no matter how much I love the idea of it. I've already learned that lesson.
It's just... I so love the way these tops look on people like Boboniaa, I had to give it another shot.
I bought this large, light and comfortable men's shirt at a thrift store, shortened the huge sleeves and gathered them into these smaller, girly sleeves. I've been wearing this top a fair bit, and apparently not looking in the mirror at the right (or wrong) angles.
The problem with me and this sort of shirt is that I am 6 feet tall and well over 200 pounds, and I'm guessing that the lovely ladies who look so good in things like this are not.
Ah well. Back to the sewing machine.
The jeans are from Addition-elle, and usually look better on me than they do here (really). The power of the unflattering shirt reaches all the way down to my toes.
The sandals, I've had so long I don't remember where I bought them.
Thanks (again) to Rachael for taking this photo for me after our last-minute coffee date today!
After 'Marriage a la Mode' by Hogarth
Lessons (1999)
By Paula Rego
Rego made this work for the National Gallery's group exhibition Encounters, eight years after her residency. She was asked to produce a piece that responded to a work in the gallery's collection. Rego chose British artist William Hogarth's Marriage A-la-Mode c.1743. Hogarth's cycle of paintings is a morality tale of arranged marriage, betrayal and death. Rego reworks Hogarth's story, updates it and set it in Portugal. In her first panel, two mothers arrange their children's marriage. In the second, the girl learns to perform 'womanhood' from her future mother-in-law. Finally, the now grown-up husband returns destitute from Brazil, in need of his betrayed wife's support.

Paula Rego
(July – October 2021)
The UK's largest and most comprehensive retrospective of Paula Rego’s work to date.
Since the 1950s, Paula Rego has played a key role in redefining figurative art in the UK and internationally. An uncompromising artist of extraordinary imaginative power, she has revolutionised the way in which women are represented.
This exhibition tells the story of this artist’s extraordinary life, highlighting the personal nature of much of her work and the socio-political context in which it is rooted. It also reveals the artist’s broad range of references, from comic strips to history painting.
It features over 100 works, including collage, paintings, large-scale pastels, ink and pencil drawings and etchings. These include early works from the 1950s in which Rego first explored personal as well as social struggle, her large pastels of single figures from the acclaimed Dog Women and Abortion series and her richly layered, staged scenes from the 2000-10s.
This is a unique opportunity to survey, in the city that Rego has lived in and called home for most of her life, the full range of her work.

I was hoping to get parents to send their children to me for Zombie Art lessons. So far no takers...
