Self-Portrait

Final assignment for head painting. I painted it in photoshop, but from a mirror, not a photo. It's amazing how much more effective painting from life is, though less convenient. I'd done another digital study earlier in the day, but from a photo. It was a fight the whole way and the results were not so great.

So I guess my professors really know what they're talking about.

Head Painting

I've really enjoyed my head-painitng class this semester. No surprise, you know how I feel about painting. Here are some of my favorite studies. Each was done from life, in under three hours.








You will not see the earliest attempts up here, but I think I've really improved. Though... I should probably paint some guys at some point.

I live with some awesome people.

Real Paint!

Sometimes I paint from life.



3 hour head study. I accidentally toned my canvas with neon orange... but I kinda liked the effect, in the end.



And some Provo trees.
