"Nude Back - Maria" re-stretch to 13x20 oil on canvas

Here is the "cropped" image. I'm working on re-stretching. Sore fingers! But worth it, I think.

"Maria - Nude Back" 18x24 oil on canvas

This painting is from my figure class in NY with Sharon Sprung. I struggle with composition when painting from life. I've decided to "crop" it -- so easy in iPhoto. The project for the day is to re-stretch onto new stretcher bars.
