Twelve of One Hundred Faces
So in November, I came up with this brilliant plan to get me into my studio and painting every day. I decided that I would paint 100 faces on 6 x 6" panels. There is no time limit on this, I just pull out a reference photo whenever I don't have a larger canvas to paint. I got photo's from several sources. One was my personal photos and those of my family. The other two are online sources - MorgueFiles.com and pmp-art.com (Paint-My-Photo). They are both free services for artists to use as reference and I highly recommend you check them out!
So without thinking that Thanksgiving and Christmas would soon be here, I began my new project. I fell in love with these faces with character. Then I got 6 Christmas commissions so I have had to put a few things (like blogging) on hold to get them done in time.

OMG there's Dean's face with plenty of character to spare. How do you do it? Happy Holidays from us both to you and Mr. B who I hope is working on his Christmas letter.
