Started on this tonight. This one will definitely take a few days to finish. Yes, I must have lost my mind! This is way too ambitious of me, and I have a portrait class starting tomorrow. It's also too small. I'm working on a 12x16 and her face is only an inch and a half. That makes it really difficult to put detail in. I don't know how people paint miniatures.
Here's a detail of her face so far. I'm not happy with it yet. I will try to finish the face, the torso and the hand tomorrow.
On a funny side note, my painting yesterday was on a pastel board, which made the surface way too slick and difficult to grab the paint. I learned my leasson, so today am painting on an ampersand board with a canvas finish. ;) Happy painting!
