I have a portrait workshop coming up soon, in four months ;) so I decided I need practice with portraits - lots of practice - otherwise I'll will be in trouble in class.
In the painting below the main focus is in her face and that's where I worked the most but I might give an other pass for the neck.
On one of my plein air trips last summerI got a set of metallic paints by Williamsburg as a present and wanted to try them. I wanted to try how to paint snow with these colors. They are maybe more suitable for city scapes or similar.
Gardens of Murillo - Jardines de Murillo (detail 1)
Today's daily painting is painted from a photo I took some years ago in Jardines de Murillo, Seville, Spain. Always wanted to paint the garden because it's so picturesque. Glad I got chance now with daily paintings. Might need some fixing still but I post already what I got done today.
