Woo hoo, all 29 faces completed in 29 days.  As a result of this challenge.....

Found that I really did not like painting my faces in acrylic onto gesso covered card and that I also am not very good at painting backgrounds either, so resorted to using found papers.

Have fallen in love again with Golden fluid acrylics, I had forgotten how lovely they are to use.
  
With the pressure of completing to a tight schedule I did not embellish or finish as I possibly would have liked to.

Thank you to everyone who has kindly commented on my faces, I am still visiting everyone else and will continue to do so over the coming month.  Also a  huge thank you to Ayala Art for hosting this again.

  1. Lovely faces in those bright colors!! Love the backgrounds you used. So clever!! You have a great way of simplifying the portraits without looking childish and I think they are awesome.
    I have finished my 29 faces, so I now have some time to visit all the participants of the challenge :-)
    Have a great sunday!

  2. Yea! You did it! And they all look so bright and colorful. I love your style.

    You could always go back and add more embellishments if you want to...not that I think they need it but you mentioned it. I often let things sit for a while and then go back and add to them.

  7. Congratulations of finishing! This is a fine collection. You should hang them all in the same room so they can talk to each other. And it's really cool that you discovered/rediscovered some things about media. You never know until you try something.
