Title: Portrait of a woman
Medium: Charcoal on paper
Size: 24″x18″
Artist: Amy Yi Chen
Year: 2010
About the drawing: This is one of my several portrait drawings done in our Sunday Portrait Session. For 3 hours we paint or draw different fellow members who take turns modeling 25 minutes poses for the group. I find it a great exercise because it requires quick observation and intense focus. Though when it was my turn, I felt like it was an hour long…

This oil portrait was painted on a routine DVAC Tuesday evening. All things considered, painting time usually works out to be around two hours in total, and this evening one of our members posed for us. These sessions are wonderful since the painters in attendance vary widely and wildly from one another in approach and technique. Tuesday evening at Don Valley is a weekly highlight in my life.

This is my niece Sophie and Buddy, the family dog. Buddy’s in doggie heaven now. I love his calm, protective manner while Sophie playfully explores the garden with his help.

When visiting family in Israel we all went for a picnic in a poppy filled valley east of Ashkelon. My nephew, a sweet, bright and articulate little boy gazed at us… “Why must you go back to Canada?” he asked. Later, we cooked over an open fire, and, as the day was warm and sunny, we dozed off under the trees.

I enjoy painting portraits, still life and landscape in watercolour, oil and acrylic. I choose my medium to suit the subject matter that I am painting. Painting from a live model is a challenge and a joy for me. ” Gay ” was painted at the Brickworks Studio.
