Re: Oil portrait

That looks stunning! Who’s portrait is it? Are you a professional artist?

Re: Oil portrait

A good effort, Muddy.

Try doing what we had to do in Art School and paint a skull, and then paint it without using the colour white.

Teeth will then cease to be a problem.

Re: Oil portrait

Wow Muddy, well done, what a beautiful portrait of your granddaughter! I've enjoyed looking at the various stages and how her features have come together and brought her to life. Brilliant.

I hope you're going to give it to her, something to treasure from her old nan

How old is she?

Good idea I will have to give that a try one of these days .
I have hardly used any white at all on the teeth mostly grey but they still look too ‘white’
I think portraits look better without teeth showing at all but I started this so will finish it now
