Looking Back


I normally know which medium I would use for a portrait at first sight of the photo.  Not so with this one.  Ink? Graphite?  Oil?  I wanted to use all three!  Even half way through this painting, I was second guessing my choice.  Once I started narrowing down my process, I got into that zone where the brush strokes were exciting, I could feel them leading me where I wanted to go. I will look again with fresh eyes tomorrow, but I think I may be finished!  Painting number 2365 in 2365 days.
