Ok, just got back from my run and it's so nice outside it's porch sitting time with my hubby and a glass of wine. Here is what I got accomplished today, the rest of the nose and the chin area. I hope to get in a good part of his upper head tomorrow as I won't be able to work on him for a while and don't want to forget my color combinations.
Bold woman's portrait
Bold Ok, for today's portrait I went out of the box and decided to try a different look and approach. This is on watercolor paper, I applied a layer of paper collate over it (you can see that some of it started lifting - so got to use more medium to glue it next time) Anyway then I tried to leave part of that under collage showing, even in the face. Went back in and applied several more light lawyers of transparent and opaque paint and then put in the hair using my dagger bus. Gosh that brush makes hair so much easier While this might not the best example what are your thoughts to taking portraits this more dynamic direction? Thanks for stopping by and taking a look.
