The last few...

As we come to another end of the 29 faces challenge, I feel a mix of sadness and relief ;oP  Relief because some days it was a struggle, even if a fun one, not only to make my face but to post and to run the 3 sites (public page, private group and blogs... plus not to mention reality and family) specially in the very beginning. But then at the end, when it is running like a well oiled machine, I can really enjoy it, it is fascinating! But things come to a conclusion and I confess I will have a huge art withdrawal.

I have seen the growth in participants in their art and style and I am so thrilled and honored to be a witness to that ♥

Visit the huge Linky list HERE to have your daily fix of art, enjoy a new blog, leave them a comment and make a new friend in a far away place.  We have people from Australia, Argentina,  Belgium, Canada, England, Finland, France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, many places in the US ... Where else? Did I miss your country, let me know!

OK, my two last faces for today: My main goal this time around was to loosen my paint brush strokes.
This first face, is a re-work I'm doing slowly. I have been adding crazy patterns for weeks, on top of a weird portrait that was not going the way I wanted, so after the colorful random patterns I am adding a face that explains at this point why the eyes are in different colors :o)


This second one was started with leftover paints from another work I was doing. I will finish her soon and all the unfinished faces will eventually be posted here in my blog :o)

She resembles my little ACEO girls, but it is a 9x12 watercolor paper.

....hhmmmm maybe I will make some ACEO in fall theme next. (◔‿◔)

Your first painting today is very colorful and interesting as Your paintings always are.

I think those first days in the beginning of the challenge and I remember how difficult it was to me to get the right way to link, oh now. It is easy, but how it could be so difficult then. And what a job You had to get all to stream. You are amaising! I remember this always, even if I take part how many challenges. This was the first I had the courage to write in English. I have seen so many wonderful blogs and faces. Thank You very very much. And BIG HUG :-)

I really enjoyed your 29 Faces challenge. Now that September is over, I would like to see some of the other Linkys, but I must be blind cause when I click on "here", I do not see a Linky list. What am I doing wrong?

Ayala Art said...

It opens another window, to the blog 29faces.blogspot.com so check if another window is opening (maybe slow?) or just type this address in your browser directly. In that blog, click on the menu tabs (under the banner) and the newest is SEPT 2013, but I have all the other past 4 rounds.... tons of art!
