Portrait in Oil
This is one of the pieces I am working on. A Portrait of a beautiful girl. Zakiya is my babysitter and very kindly agreed to let me paint her portrait. I am hoping if I blog about it, that will give me the push I need to finish it. Sometimes the creative instincts flow, other times, like this past few weeks it feels like I am trying to force blood from a stone. All I know for sure is that a day without painting is a miserable one, soon as I paint, draw or sculpt it feels like a great big mean noisy pteradactyl has lifted off my shoulders.

Nossa Samantha! você é uma grande artista!!! é muito real parece fotografia.Parabéns pelo teu talento.
Obrigado Mirtes, você é sempre muito gentil!
One word *AMAZING*.
Zakiya looks quite relaxed and at ease in your portrait of her Samantha. I like the off-centred positioning.
I was surprised when you said you needed to finish it as I thought it was finished. Be interesting to see where the final detailed brushstrokes need to go.
Thank You Julie! xx
Thanks John! I have not painted in her earrings at all yet, I need to fix a few things on the face and paint her clothing and hair and work the background just a little more, all the finicky things. The devil really really is in the details!
