29 FACES DAY 13

Priscilla - Pretty in Pink
Watercolour on watercolour paper

The scanning process has darkened and strengthened the colours of my Priscilla painting, especially on the shadow and cheeks, and even in Photoshop I couldn't lighten it.

Never mind, I'm not trying to create masterpieces (as if I could!), just enjoying the challenge of creating a new painting for each day in a different medium and with a different approach.

In spite of the problem I like her, she somehow has a very 1930s look with the tilt of the hat over one eye, and I do like painting ladies wearing a hat.

Here are the other six 29 FACES I created this week:

  5. I agree with your art philosophy about having fun with it and exploring different mediums. Your lady in the hat painting is stunning, and after seeing your work for a while, had noticed your love of hats too. Blessings, my friend!
