This is water mixable oil on an acrylic background done about three years ago. It was done from a photo and I think my inexperience prevented me avoiding some of the pitfalls. I touched it up last Christmas but because I painted it fairly thinly with too much water, a lot of the original paint lifted and I wished I had just left it alone. I would be interested in any comments, because although I wont do anything more on this one I think I quite like the idea of working on portraits and bodies for a while. |
