Every now and then I like to try my hand at painting a likeness of someone I observed, but not a person I actually drew or photographed - so here's a little acrylic painting done on a 5 x 4" canvas. Am reasonably pleased with it. And here's a quick little watercolor sketch that I'm using as a "pattern" for an 8 x 8" painting. I did the first pass in not too realistic acrylic colors, but will probably finish the piece in oils. It being spring, I'm so busy planting and enjoying the lovely weather - hope it's nice where you are! Thanks for looking!

Same here, with the lovely weather the garden is really calling and less time for painting :-) Three beautiful works and my favorite goes to the portrait with the warm colors and great shadings.
