About a month ago Paintmyphoto.ning.com had a challenge to paint yourself in an expressionistic style, which is not realistic, so it was a stretch for me. The photo of me in the pink hat was taken at a craft sale about 7 years ago. I use it for my avatar on several sites, so it is out there. You are welcome to paint it if you like.

ReplyDeleteThank you all. I am doing more expressionistic paintings now with black lines around them. More abstract. It's kind of freeing not having to be so realistic.
ReplyDeleteVery cool selfie. I like the colors and shapes this style lends itself too. I will love drawing you in PINK!
