Frustrating

I am slowly making progress. Too many things going on, and I was hopping that it would settled fast after school started, even if only one of my kids actually started school already. The older one will start in a couple of weeks.
Anyway, this is the painting so far. I modified the eye, I like it better.
I also kind of like the hair now.

I love her face...she's tough-looking yet beautiful at the same time.

I really like her skin - all the layers and textures make for a very interesting and pleasing whole!

Oh she's coming along wonderfully, even if not as quickly as you wish. So much potential in her, you can see it! Happy PPF!

You know what the way you painted the eyes looks more livelier. And the layering is so good. Thank you for sharing your work.

She is wonderful, keep at it.

Carolyn Dube said...

Fabulous- I was really drawn to all the colors you've used on the eyes and the shadows on her neck- so many colors subtly working together to create the effect!

Lynn Cohen said...

It looks great to me...wonderful color and line! And her expression sings! Being a busy mom and artist too must have major challenges! Bravo for what you create in both arenas! HPPF on Sunday!
