Finishing Things – Week 1
.
I’m taking a break for a few weeks in order to finish some things.  Like many artists, I love to start and work on projects, but sometimes I don’t finish them. This is my opportunity to finish my “girl” and “owl” paintings. Here’s what I did this week:
 
Before
After
I tidied up the outlines, softened some of of the hair highlights, added shading to the dress and outlined the neckline.

The background flowers seemed too dark, so I painted a thin wash of white paint over them.

Enjoyed seeing how even the changes you made affected the paintings. It must feel good to get unfinished projects done. I have quite a few that are waiting to be worked on…someday. Maybe this summer will be my time to finish them.
