Summer dance-Speedpaint

Did a speedpaint from the DA group.  Did it over 3 sessions but don't think I spent more than the 2 hour allowance.  The stock was from Random-Acts-Stock.  
Spent a while getting the pose down.  Offline I have started working on anatomy so I will probably focus on that for a while using Loomis and Bridgeman.
