This week I've been participating in Kat McBride's free online class "Let's Draw and Paint Fabulous Faces". Kat breaks down the process and makes it very do-able (for someone like me who has never painted a face before!). The class was intended (I think) to teach us to paint semi-realistic 'beautiful girls' for use in our art journals, etc. but never being one to start easy, I decided to try a self portrait. Well, I don't see a future in portrait painting, but I had fun. I seem to have grown a bit of a Jay Leno chin. LOL
I played around in Photoshop to see if I could do away with the extra long chin. ;o)
I think my next effort will be a more whimsical 'pretty girl'...
