A painting done for the Avalanche blog. I don't know where my crazy ideas come from. I just start to paint and the ideas develop with the drawing. I used a man as reference which is still a little too apparent, though some of the manly features work well for the subject.
A good one. The glasses, eyes and nose combo really sell this one. Great old lady pattern on the wall, too.
