Danielle in blue



An acrylic on cardboard, painted in something like an hour. As usual, I started with a fairly detailed pencil drawing on the primed board, and added the acrylic subsequently. The creases in the clothing and detail in the hair were made by scraping into the wet paint - since acrylic dries almost instantly, I had to work fast.

When I originally made this, I was irritated at how pointy the chin appeared, hence the inscription. It doesn't look so bad now.
