Young Maya Angelou, Acrylic on Gessoed Mat Board, 10"x7" |
Day 29 - 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge
The month is almost over and I feel like I have made a lot of progress in my ability to paint faces. This painting is of a young Maya Angelou from a photo I found on the Internet. I used only black and white paint on a red background. The technique I have been using seems to work pretty well for me. I have included the source photo and my initial block-in below to show how much information can be captured in those first few paint strokes.Source photo (left) and initial block-in (right) |
