Enjoyed his energy in gestures. Some of these would fly very freely into large format. Short pose is very fun and energetic for me. To do 10 poses on one large sheet in 10 minutes is what his work reminds me of. Fun to understand these artists, thanks Jeff.

my favorite one yet cause hes just so open and isnt afraid of saying exactly how he feels about a certain subject. I wish you pushed him on answering the difference between zoom and a photo more 😅i think martin kind of averted away from it but either way 10/10 episode

When Covid started I converted my live group painting session to Zoom. Martin has attended my session! We still do it with 12 artists in the room and people from across the country and sometimes from Europe. We chat while we work so it's a great way to connect with other artists from all over. At the Portrait Society conference there was a session called "Moving Targets". They talked about the benefit of a model that is living and breathing and moving. There was a quote that said something like "keep the model talking to keep them alive". A still photo is flat and motionless, and by comparison lifeless. Using zoom people can get a sense of who the model is, see them move, hear them talk and get a fuller sense of what they are all about. In my zoom session I have five different cameras on the model, so from home you can pick your spot to view the model from. In a crowded room working from the model you might not get a vantage point that you like. I think Martin made it clear that it's important to just keep drawing. You can't always have a live model on hand, so when you don't zoom can come in handy. (of course it helps to have a good internet connection. Then again that can help people concentrate on big areas of light and dark rather than small details) Martin does some incredible work working from a Zoom screen. People in my group often do wonderful work and you would be hard-pressed to figure out if it was done with a live model or from zoom. Often times it's impossible to tell. But compared to working from a still photo, you get more personal connection with the model, and possibly with other artists, you can see the model move and get a better sense of their three-dimensional structure, and you can work from the comfort of your home when no other options are available. If you are looking for hyper realism, I photo might be better for that, although you might wind up with a static image. If you work a little more loosely, and you want to get a more personal sense of your model, zoom is a great thing. The next best thing to being there. (Use a large screen TV for your monitor. That helps)
