This first one was fun, and although it is interesting enough, I don't think I'd ever paint like that. Something about it just doesn't work. It looks like I'm trying to be someone else, which, for this assignment, I was. For the next painting, I took what I learned from the first, put away the Ann Gale painting that I was looking at, and just painted. This is the result...
It works a lot better, doesn't it? I actually really like this one! I could see myself painting more like this. It harkens back to my impressionist days. What a great exercise!
I love that face, as well as your rendering of it. What a lovely little subject you have!
ReplyDeleteLove that little nora! You are amazing Tandy. Love these.
ReplyDeleteYes, we must always paint from our heart, not someone else's.
