Guache portrait


Of Sunshine for Miss Stacey's summer school project 1. Almost didn't make it ... having been feeling ill since Friday ... but painting was actually a good way to distract myself from being ill. Not as happy with this as with my skin tone experiments, but hey ... onwards for the next project!

hey hope you are feeling better, love the painting, I'm afraid I don't know about the 50's style ice cream van, they are all abit 1980's round here!

I really like the way you've chosen to crop Sunshine. Just enough information.

I understand the skin tone struggle...there seems to be a real magic to it. Nice job here!

I am perhaps being a little selfish by leaving a comment here that isn't about your art. But I just got your comment at my own blog and wrote a response. I never know if anyone would check back to the comments page...it's not exactly a thread. But I wanted you to get my response, so here's my link to it. http://astilllife.blogspot.com/2008/07/blog-post_04.html

Happy creating!!!
