Painting
with acrylics is still hard! I'm still spoiled by flexibility and the
nature of oils where I can blend all I want while it's still wet. I'm
glad that this piece turned out better than I hoped for. The original
photo was taken by Elke Vogelsang
who takes amazing photos. She took this photo of one of her dogs. It
was such a intimate photo that I wanted to try painting it! (I adore
black and white photography) I will post the process of this painting
later in the week.
At
the moment, I'm tackling with skin tones with acrylics and it's not
coming along well. I am tempted to turn to the pencils for some comfort
but I will soldier on. Practice makes perfect!
And
finally winter weather has arrived in SA! Still a little warm this time
of year but I still get to layer up, enjoy more teas and chocolate.
Stay cool or warm wherever.
