SAPPHIRE TOES
Of all the models, this man was the most dramatic.  I have many paintings of Sapphire, his performance art name.  A dancer, he rarely sat still...so to catch him in a chair was unusual.  His toes were dark and had a lovely deep blue tone...and as you can see, THEY were not sitting still!  It's totally watercolor and painted in "local" color
