2 hour portrait sketch.


Really love the cheek bone definition on this painting. Using a light acrylic and layering from light to dark seems to be working for me.


The underlaying texture and natural pattern of the wood underneath the painting are perfect for skin tones.

Mushrooms

LadyBirds


A long way to go, but at this point, everything is a learning curve.
