More of my 3rd painting

It took me a while to come close to the original colors for this Modigliani painting. At the end I decided to make my own adjustments, because i want the hair to pop more. You will see that part later when I actually paint it.
So far I have this and I'm happy the way it's turning out so far. To see the post and the original see HERE



I am VERY tempted to "personalize" all these paintings of the challenge, which would involve a happy messy over-paint in some areas, add texture and make them my style....
OR
Perhaps have a giveaway for the "almost 500" followers...with one painting for the gift??
Maybe  BOTH:
Decorate, over-paint/texture a little and have the giveaway??
Let me know what you think!
Thanks for visiting and happy PPF

  1. This is looking fantastic! I guess my paintings were my style, mainly because I didn't have any choice, lol! I'm all for a giveaway. Thanks for hosting this challenge. Maybe Van Gogh next? (Seriously, I may cut back a little on challenges, but I'll check in to see what you're up to.)

  3. Add some YOU!!! most definitely :D You have shown your skill at reproducing these works in someone elses style, a fabulous homage to the artist, but they are YOUR paintings, so I say "make them yours!!" :D XXX

    1. Stacy, do you mean too wide? or the whole of it too big, like fonts and all? I know that is the personal resolution on each monitor. In the kids monitor looks bigger and can't see the background.
      But in this one looks like the picture I showed before. Funky isn't it?
      About the painting... I think that's what I will do. :oD
