Face No 98 |
I had to push myself to paint one more tiny dime size face.
The last one.
But then I thought to myself, "there are no birds in the dime-zone."
That's all it took.
Face No 99 |
It was like a warm-up.
I was then in a groove and so ready to paint No 99.
I was full of inspiration to do it different.
I'm not sure you can tell, but I went about painting her with a little different technique.
Well, I thought I it was different.
I built up thin watery layers of paint.
And I used my finger a lot.
Oh yes, I just want to tell you about that luscious greenish color you see in the top right and lower left area and even on the face.
I mixed Raw Umber and Primary Cyan.
I'll be doing that again.

Oh, I do like that green. And she's a beauty! I hadn't realized the 100 faces group was open when I joined, as in any photos I posted there would be seen by my friends who aren't in the group. So I probably won't be posting my faces but I'd still like to stay and comment on everyone else's. It's good inspiration and I like to keep up with what everyone is working on. http://www.toadinaboat.com/
ReplyDeleteYes Melisa, the FB group is open for anyone to see. We all would love your comments so do stay around for that. Thanks
DeleteSharon....I think a self-portrait should be one of the 100 Faces....!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I simply can't do a self portrait as the No 100 face. Too big. Too old. Too fat. Too rink-a-lie. Let's just pretend that I'm one of those in the dime-zone.
DeleteYou could do your profile photo with the yellow glasses! It would be perfect, Sharon!
DeleteThose faces are amazing! Only one more left - will you start another big project right away?
ReplyDeleteI have a big huge gigantic project going at the Garden Palace but if I start one here in the home studio.....maybe a new class.....
DeleteWhat will you do to commemorate the painting of the 100th face? What an accomplish that will be!!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of something special. I think she will happen this week.
