Figure Paintings

My favorite subjects to paint are portraits and the human figure. Here's a recent painting from a lovely live model in costume. (I need to get more of these photographed and posted.) See others in person at my Dec. 3rd Open Studio.

Oil on Canvas, 20x16, Quin Sweetman

I paint from the live model at least once per week, mostly using the limited palette inspired by Anders Zorn. 

A Mother's Gift

I'm featured in a lovely eZine, 2nd Tuesday, by Fred Swan this month at http://fredrickswan.com/a-mothers-gift/

The past year-and-a-half has been quite difficult, as I was losing my mom to liver failure, but this Zine focuses on the positive: The gifts my mother gave me. Please take a quick look and let us know what you think.

Peace and happy gardening, my friends,

Quin
