I'm going to try to do Martha's 29 Faces Challenge.
This was a challenge because I just sketched onto acrylic
paint paper and then painted in water soluble oil paints. Using
these paints for portraits is new to me. I only have 6 colors so
I had to do a lot of mixing.
great mixing you did.. it turned out beautiful!

So impressed - I am a bit hit and miss when it comes to colour mixing. Something I would love to learn to do much better - I never would have guessed at your limited colours!
ReplyDeleteMixing colours is always good for a picture and gives a personal expression. Wonderful picture
ReplyDeleteCheers

Really nice ~ and you certainly expressed more than the six colors!
ReplyDeleteBeautifully mixed colours Faye! Her eyes have such a loving sparkle in them. Clare
ReplyDeleteVery nice oil portrait, you blended the colors nicely.
ReplyDeleteHello Faye! I haven't been around, sorry for my lack of visits to your beautiful blog. Lovely work here! Love the shading and the expression. Truly lovely!
ReplyDeleteLovely, and I really like the blue and green background. I always enjoy seeing the things you create. Hope your doing well. Hugs
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely, Faye!
ReplyDeleteyou did such a great job of mixing. she is lovely.
ReplyDeleteA very nice portrait. Brave of you to try a new medium. Hope I have the courage to try something new before the 28 days are over.
ReplyDeleteI love your painting!! Water soluble oils are fun. The only thing I don't like about them is the drying time. I need to build shelves for wet paintings, I think.
ReplyDeleteLove your piece. Great mixing skills.
ReplyDeleteLove this painted face.
ReplyDeleteGreat face. I love her hair and the colour combination
ReplyDeleteShe is wonderful Faye... and good on you for trying a new medium in painting her too... look forward to more...

ReplyDeleteWow, both of your two faces are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm really impressed that you use different materials - you are truly challenging yourself. Very inspiring, I think I'll also give a try for my oil colours. :)
The face of someone I would like to get to know. Beautiful work!

ReplyDeleteSorry to be so long before commenting - too many hospital and medical appointments, but I'm glad to find a minute to come and visit properly. Your colours are beautifully chosen, in spite of having only six, so well done. And your lovely girl has real character.
