Paint Party Friday, week 7, year 5 #43

Still I haven't been able to visit you

too bad

I claim the weather, too much sun and summer hot,

 the latest week.

But today it rains

so there might be a chance for computer life hereafter.. :))

My contribution

 I started here

on my gelli plate

with some acrylics

and I suddenly saw a face

and started to paint what I saw

the blackground was painted light bluish green

I always take photos of my art work with my phone

and they do not come out with exact colors as the original painting

and also it depends on whether I take a photo in daylight or 

at night (with electric lights)

below is taken by night

I will say the original is more as above, 

taken in the daylight

only it does not get that bright colors as in the original

Hair painted with acrylics (on a gelli plate)

Background: neo colors II (watersoluble)

Skin tone: Ceramcoat acrylic/Santas flesh 

Eyes: Derwent inktense pencils and Marvy Metallics marker/copper

Lips: Derwent inktense pencil

Highlights: white acrylic and some white Uni poscha pen

The black pencil for outlines and details is Derwent tinted charcoal

Paint Party Friday, week 6, year 5 #42

Paint Party Friday again!
Time is running fast
and I have not had time to visit you all
Hoping for better time the coming days

This piece I've painted mostly with watercolors
The face with acrylic paint (Ceramcoat santa flesh).
For eyes and lips I usually use paint pens or/and
watercolors.
For highlights white acrylic paint or gesso
And a waterproof black pen.
For the hair I've used distress stain
The outline of the face is acrylic (Amsterdam oxide black)
tha background started with watercolors
and refinished with a thin layer of acrylics (Golden Manganese Blue Hue)

I'm impressed by myself for once that I really remember what paint I used :))

I all time mix different paints no matter type or brand....

and here is where I started from

dots with my finger

my work desk

Happy PPF!

Paint Party Friday, week 5, year 5

My contribution 

I have bought some cheap watercolors

(the brand of Grene Art)

and I really like them

It was so fun to paint with them

Sometimes when I use acrylics 

I feel guilty for polluting the environment

This time I tried my new watercolors  

the dress was first painted with watercolors 

then acrylics (Golden)

I also put a layer with acrylics in the end (the sea)

Manganese Blue Hue (Golden)

lovely transparent

I'm not used to paint with watercolors

but I hope I will get to

I always use different sort of paints in one piece 

regardless of brands

This was my start of the piece
