Painting ourselves is so hard - inevitably people say to me "Who is that?" .... ummm so I make myself older or younger, thinner or prettier! But to do it in a 6x8 inch format is amazing! I think it's a cool painting, and I can see from your photo on the blog that you got the resemblance!
Thanks for the comments. I always find it very difficult to paint myself but seeing I painted it for the blog, I just posted it. Always a bit uncomfortable so thanks for the encouraging comments.
I am always looking for models who are able to sit for me for a few hours. If you would like information on how this works, just e-mail me and ask for information on modelling options at cm.mccoy@comcast.net . Thank you.
I think this looks a bit more like Alex. It must be because of the expression.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the hair though, that's dead on.
ReplyDeleteI like it, even though your ever present euphoric smile isn't present here. Awesome work.
