I do not get to select a color, and I do not let my stong inclination of doping details.
That's a really good exercise for me! Because I like to get of my comfort zone and let the brush go fast with as little detail as I can manage.
Yes, there is such a thing as not knowing when to stop, and having too much fun lol

What a great idea! I have never thought about using leftover paint to do a portrait. I will have to try this the next time I have a lot left from a project.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors!
ReplyDeleteWhen to stop? I know! I ask that same question over and over again.
ReplyDeleteLeft over paints are inspiring, and painting with them isn't so conscious. That's good. And you face is good, so expressive!
Oh she is definitely thinking deep. Great eyes.
ReplyDeleteLook at that, the colours are great & speed gives it a feeling of catching a fleeting moment.
ReplyDeleteWonderful face, love the colours, too. Happy PPF, Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteLove all the colors in the face, Martha.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea and beautiful face! I tried to loosen up and then it becomes contrived!

That's a great idea, to use leftover paints like that. I usually use it just for making backgrounds in a sketchbook, but I really like this idea. And your portrait looks great with these colours!
ReplyDeleteI also do this but with landscapes - it's a great way to use up left over paint. I love the colours you've used here - those aqua shades around her eyes - wonderful!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful face today!
ReplyDeleteshe's wonderful with all those colors!
ReplyDeleteI love the mix of colors in this face! The way you angle the face makes me wonder what is subject is viewing, almost as if they are daydreaming or looking off in the distance.
ReplyDeleteHello Ayala!!!! I love this face! I also love that you take left over paint and just go for it. Your art is dynamic and full of emotion. So glad to see you again.

What wonderful colors! And such a fun exercise. I often do this with my leftover paints, too. :D
ReplyDeleteSuch a good idea, just to use the colours you have. And you have still painted such a colourful face with an intriguing expression. I like her green skin.
ReplyDeleteLove that face. It is so loose and colorful!
ReplyDeleteLove how you are using the left over paint! Great color in this one. :)
