I'm linking up to Paint Party Friday. Check out the other great artists over there!
Edit:
I thought I should add a little about my process. The background is collaged with a dollar store bible page. I've used Adirondack Colorwash Spray in butterscotch and some red acrylic for texture. The face is mostly done with acrylics along with some Faber-Castell Pitt Big Brush Pens. Still experimenting with the hair. I've used red acrylic for the base and then, using a brush, added strands in Adirondack Colorwash Spray Espresso and Butterscotch and some Bombay Indian Ink in red.

ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific way to fight negative thoughts! It's perfect. Even if the painting weren't already great, those words would make it so.
ReplyDeleteWonderful... I love the run down of what you used and I think that is a fabulous way to battle negative thinking!
