Description
This portrait was done in mixed media on hardboard. The hardboard was layered with a combination of plaster and other ingredients to create stronger adhesion and spread with knives. The actual painting was done with a palette knife with acrylic. The multitude of layers of raw sienna, cadmium red, turquoise,whites etc built up in layers expressed for me the warm glow of her brown skin. Loving the beauty of African black ladies and the ability to use bright colors is always a wonderful experience for me while painting.
