a work in progress

work in progress
acrylic on 18 x 24 300gsm watercolor paper

lately i've been practicing on my own using a technique many of my favorite artists use. it's been working out some what. it's a shame foundation year doesn't allow you to explore different paints. in my class we are locked to using oil paint. i enjoy it, but there's something about it that doesn't work with me. i can't render at all with it, maybe because i'm impatient.

this piece is just a practice, i still need to finish the background. i want to add much warmer colors soon, and i have no idea what color her "hair-petals" will be. i had no composition in mind, just freestyled the whole thing.

be sure to check out the final product in a couple of days.
