day 27

29 faces




i found this piece of painted paper in my drawer.

probably a random experiment left for better days.







the more i looked at it, i began to see a face.  

i lightly penciled her in.





then painted in a loose style.  i've been wanting to practice

working with values and colors.  i don't think this was 

successful as far as that goes.  



there is a fine line between being overly critical  and analyzing  

for learning purposes.  i don't usually get too tied up in heavy 

personal criticism because there is always  another painting to try again.





and we know the drill....

practice, practice, practice.

  1. Like they say in the books, 'Do lots of starts...' I admire you for keeping them for a rainy day as I tend to get very cross and screw them up to chuck at the bin! Even if it wasn't what you had in mind, she has a nice pensive expression.
