This month's submission is a self portrait painted with oil on A3 board. For me, the simple and joyful act of painting has been the epitome of the Good Life this month. I have had very little experience with oil paints and just last week I attended an oil painting session for teachers who want to work with oil paints in the classroom. It sort of gave me the urge to do a little bit more, and this week I have had a go at a quick self portrait. This took me about an hour. It was a lovely hour and I enjoyed every minute of the time. My dream of 'The Good Life' would be all day, every day making Art and being creative.
Hope you like it!

I've given myself a very long nose and a strangely large eye on one side...
I love the colour and texture of oil paint...
lovely! -- Anna
ReplyDeletewe all need a srangely large eye on one side to keep a look out for danger.. love it- even though I see you as a much happier individual than this alludes to - I am looking forward to class 1 in 2014 - self portraits- Jen :)
