Marvin,
I agree totally. It seems easier to me to paint from life. The paintings I have begun in your classes are always better than anything I have done from a photograph. But I can't imagine painting these restless 7/9yr olds from life. They would look miserable! I have convinced mom and dad to let me to color studies early on and then at the end though.
