About Me
- Jean Spitzer
- Lately, I've been drawing from life, creating drawings, pastels and paintings that combine reality, imagination and experience, and represent my thoughts and feelings as much as external appearance.

mujer en azul
I like!
wow! Jean! all are amazing!
the third is my favorite - the colors well chosen, different intensities
scoring volumes and luminosities;
are excellent!
The last drawing has that black velvet thing going which is retro cool. Actually the middle figure also; interesting solution to developing the background.
The black eye on the first drawing. The disembodied shoulder and the blending of color outlining it. love
so while you were out drawing this morning, I was choking on oil paint fumes. Continuing work on my kitchen. trade places?
A very successful morning drawing from life. Like the top one the best.
I like the character study in #1, world-weary yet kinda dominant. But the colors and feel of completeness make #3 my favorite. Really a nice combo of design and color.
I love how you capture the poses so well. The lines and styling are all yours. I can't name a favorite here- they all are very strong.
amazing all. my favourite is the last one, beautifull light in this
Beautiful - love the bold lines on the first, the softness of the second and the color on the third.
I don't know why, but your work is making me think of James Bond movies lately.
(PS: I mean that in a good way.)
Inspiring, as always!
Thanks, Camino Roque and Denise.
Thanks, PA.
The last time we painted rooms, which was in the spring, we ended up sleeping elsewhere for a bit, it was so pervasively noxious. So, no, don't think I want to trade.
What color(s) did you settle on?
Thanks, Anthony.
As you know, the combination of model and artist is what makes the life drawing.
Thanks, Banjo, Pamo, Laura and Katherine.
Margaret, 007? Thanks. Those opening sequences are beautiful.
Thanks, Shanna.
These are all very striking. I like them.
Thanks, K.
Wonderful figures, i like all of them.
Thanks, Jane.
Beautiful
work
good creations
Thanks, Skizo.
