Stretched Eye Portrait
After spending all week locked up in the studio I have another new portrait to share. I am not sure if a small jpeg can do this latest painting justice. I am really starting to get accustomed to painting on the larger panels and this latest one benefitted from my increased comfort. The brush work is more loose and the paint is going on easier. I brought some focus back onto the color shifts and feel good about the results.
In any case, here it is, about halfway completed:

love this
