Sean Cheetham is an excellent Artist, I've learnt a lot from him. I've never used oil paint before, but I truly enjoyed his class. Here is what I've done during his 5 days "Alla Prima" Oil Painting workshop at LAFAA... or more precisely, the 2 last paintings. Each one of them is approximatively 6 hours or work.
This is Day 5: (using a limited palette, know as the Zorn palette, Anders Zorn) White, Ivory Black, Yellow Ochre and either Vermilion or Cadmium Red Light or Med, in that case I used Scarlet Red.
And below, Day 4.

Nice oil painting works.

i like how you use red paint to create tension and drama. makes me think of Bacon.

Blimey, they're beautiful. Really like the sculptural modeling and the loose bit's where the canvas shows through.

SK, great work for a beginner!!
I see you getting paid for this some day.
I love the red background reflecting on the brunette's hair. Oil is so fantastic for that sort of effect. Great work!

I can't believe this is your first time painting in oils! Sure doesn't look it. Love the colors on the second one.
nice work
Wowzer, wowzer, wowzer!!! These are intense and incredible. I love the way you allow the color to fade out in the bottom one. Gorgeous.
Bonjour Stephane!
Beautiful portraits...I like that cool green stroke on her cheek in the bottom one. Have you been working more in oils?
Terrific start to oil painting Stef. Bravo, encore!
