A couple of quick feature studies from life in gouache, using a compact mirror and myself as a model.

Anita Davies said...: LOL...Thanks Owen

Thanks Jennifer. I've painted portrait commissions for a few years now but from photographs, never from life. I find it much easier from photos but I'm not really one to be content with ease...It's the challenge that inspires me! ;); February 06, 2009 10:07 PM
