This is the demo painting I made while teaching a private painting session today for a group of lovely artists. Our entire group used the same photo reference that I used for the painting I made yesterday. I really enjoyed the way everyone's work came out. After all of the artists left the studio, I turned up the music, added some additional strokes, and a line from one of my favorite #RoyOrbison songs ...

I was all right for a while, I could smile for a while
But I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say "Hello" You wished me well, you couldn't tell

That I'd been #crying ...
