Painting In Progress...


I started this painting a couple days ago with the hopes of getting familiar with more color in a portrait.  I did this in about an hour and I had so much fun dropping in heavier amounts of paint.  I am excited to do something different!  This picture started as a portrait of my daughter Olivia and as I kept going, I sort of created an older version of her.  Her hair is darker and her face is more grown up.  I had some fun with it and allowed myself to get creative instead of painting in the lines.  I hope you enjoy this quick portrait!  Thanks for looking.
