Portrait experiments

7th February 2012

Areas: paintings portraits

Recently I have been experimenting painting portraits, at my Monday night painting group, using irregular shaped washes of acrylic. I love the way the washes keep the painting loose, allowing me to add detail without tightening it up too much.
