I'm still working on this large portrait. It's getting more filled in, still lots to do though. I'm going to continue with the background, and then maybe tackle her hair later. I still like how it's going, & love working this large!

Skater Portrait
I had a vendor table at a local skating
competition this week. While there, I worked on this new portrait
(nothing like people watching over your shoulder!). It's almost
finished; I particularly like the way the skates turned out. Now will
turn back to the other one I've been working on, a big one & it's so
fun! I love to paint!!

Dream Clouds, WIP
I'm working on a new portrait. Enjoying it very much, but currently struggling w/ mixing shadowed skin tones. I keep going back & forth between too warm/ too cool, and it never looks quite right. Watching tutorials tonight on mixing skin tones to see if I can get a better handle on it! Here's the WIP.
And after another couple hours of work, it's definitely improved. Happy to keep it moving in the right direction. :)
