Garden Still life

Charcoal still life

Self portrait

Finished: John

I wanted to mix up the way that I layed out my painting for my concentration which led to putting him behind all the colors and coming out. This piece has extra elements then the other pieces just to make it different but mix well into the series.

Finished: Christian

I absolutely loved making this piece because of the contrast of the background and the subject. I learned new ways of mixing paints and how to makes features on the face more smooth and flowing.

Finished: Colleen

By creating a piece where the subject was upside down added a new look the the series and also pushed this persons personality. I created the background to suit Colleen on a personal level. Vibrante and outgoing.

Finished: Maddy

Maddy is an extremely colorful and powerful person meaning that a powerful attention demanding background was needed. My inspiration came from Picaso.
