Face #13 - Mixed Media Portrait



This is turning out to be one of those paintings that looks better on the screen than in real life, maybe due the reduced size. I focused on creating a multi-layered background before adding the face, still continuing to learn how to paint with acrylics and not go completely mad in the process. I think I'm getting the hang of it. Each time it's a little easier and more natural, and yes, fun!

  1. i love so many of these... face #11 is AMAZING and #13 (this one) is really good...i love the colors you chose for the background too. You're doing great. And so what if you don't finish the 29 faces? You are at least painting. xox

  2. I like your use of colours, and she is a very real person. You have a good distinctive style.
