Little girl



I posted this painting mostly finished a little while back. Well, I've finished it Heres a decent upclose look at the face, thought I've never really had a good digital image thate show the brush strokes very well. At least you can see some of the strong reds that were pushed in the face and I like the ear.

  4. Brilliant again!!! Your figurative work is so emotional. What suface do you paint on? It seems so smooth and seamless.
    Keep up the good work.

  6. Interesting. As a beginner I would expect to find cooler hints of green or blue in shadow area under chin. Just goes to prove that a master is allowed to break the rules!

  7. Thanks very much for the comments. Williams- most of the strong reds are reflecting from the bright red shirt.
    Naturegirl- I pretty much always paint oil on board I really like the smooth surface that gives me a lot of control. I felt like I was fighting the texture will canvas always, so smooth is perfect for me to get the details I like.
