Natural Sadness
"Natural Sadness,: Acrylic on Panel, 14x11"
I did this quick self-portrait today to see if I was still able to paint freehand and from life (a mirror). The exercise was mixed (not too thrilled w/the final painting) but it was interesting to see the pros & cons of not working from photos. I feel like the rendering itself has extra depth (see eyes in particular), but was unable to get anything interesting in the expression. I think my 'concentrating' face makes me look like I'm sad.
