Acrylic on Cradled Board 8x8
I like to paint from life as often as I can. It helps to sharpen my skills. This painting started to take a turn for the worse at some point. I am always kind of glad when that happens because it forces me to loosen up and take chances. Many of my paintings start out as something else! When they fail, I paint over them. This also has the advantage of adding texture and interest.
