creating faces and making colourful art

Combining my favorite subject, painting and drawing faces, with the use of colour is a wonderful combination for me in this time of work with children with special needs, which is quite demanding, as I'm new to it and I have a lot to learn about it!
Here are this week's faces. I'm working on paper backgrounds that I have worked on previously, unfinished drawings and paintings and papers I have been experimenting on:





The first mixed media piece I sold!



Looking forward to the next faces! 
and

Have a wonderful weekend!

  9. As always, I love your work. I'm especially fascinated by the way the last one seems to emerge from the background and her very striking eyes. Blessings, my friend!

  10. Hvor er det bare nogle skønne udtryk du får frem!
    Jeg synes især, at den med den røde kjole har nogle spændende ting i sig. Hvordan har du lavet det?

    1. Mange tak Maiken! Jeg har brugt noget indpakningspapir til at tage noget akrylfarve af et andet billede jeg har arbejdet med, limet noget guldpapir/folie oven på dette og startede så med en skitse til et portræt, så har jeg limet et stykke rispapir ovenover igen og er så gået i gang med at male portrættet her for et par dage siden.
