Clayton Beck

I picked up a copy of American Artist (Dec. 2005) at the library today and saw their cover story on Clayton Beck.

His cover painting reminded me of Scott Burdick's work. I went to his site and found two demos online. One for an oil portrait, and one for a charcoal portrait.

Another Bill Whitaker Demo

This one was painted from a live model at the Scottsdale Artists School.

Bill's style is very highly finished, yet he doesn't draw a detailed drawing, or use grids, or other such nonsense. A lesson to us all.
