Day 7 - 29 Faces Challenge September 2015

I managed to find some time this morning to play with my acrylics and inktense blocks.  Although it's not a complete painting I'm happy with the shading - not perfect but heading in the right direction.

Catch Up 29 Faces Art Challenge Day's 3 4 and 5

Quick post showing the faces for day 3 4 and 5.  Been a busy week with work so haven't had time to blog last few days.

Here goes - 

Day 3 - I'm not happy with this one as I messed up with the shading and the flowers look too flat.

Day 4 - This one is much nicer even if the colour is in grey tones.

Day 5 - what can I say lol this one turned out pants but never mind it was a quick sketch as you can see.

29 Faces Art Challenge Day 3

Day 3 of the #29faces art challenge.  I started painting this one with Derwent's graphic tint pencils but they didn't like the gesso and left grainy bits which made the whole thing look 'dirty' so I went over some of it with acrylic paint.

29 Faces Art Challenge Day 2

Day 2 of the #29faces art challenge.  

Not too sure about this one. It started off as a male face but seems to have gone off a bit. I think its the chin it became too rounded as I painted. Didn't bother with the hair too much as I wanted to concentrate on the shading of the face.  I have another 26 days to improve.

 See ya tomorrow
