12x9" canvas size, framed in black with gold liner, 3" width
Overall framed dimensions 17x14"
Talbott is a friend from my gym who sat in my studio in 2019 for this figure study, as I was anticipating a larger version possibly painted at a later date. Like many ideas that I do preliminary studies for, this idea got tucked away....literally. Like many painting ideas, it ended up in a huge stack of painted sketches, and I have yet to pursue the idea as a larger project.
Around the same time, Talbott also modeled for a head study.
Artists like myself regularly paint simple figure studies of models as a way to keep up our life painting skills. This is why I have countless studies of models in my studio.
