Finishing Things – Week 2
.
I’m taking the next few week to finish my “girl” and “owl” paintings. This week, I was already pretty happy with the two that I “finished,” so the final details are subtle.
Before
After
The only thing I did to this painting was tidy the face outline and add a little cheek color.
Before
After
I added more blue to the sky, darkened the tree trunks, added a few more red highlights to the hair and tidied the outlines.
The next How To Paint A Girl E-Course starts on May 25. Last Friday, Juliette Crane posted some of the “girls” from the last session (the one I participated in). It is so neat to see all the different styles. You can check it out here.

We’re sure you’ll get a real sense of achievement out of finishing things up! Deccy x
I am loving how all of those have turned out! You’ve done a beautiful job with all of them!
Your girls look lovely, such a nice thing to paint. I like the ones that Cathy Mckean did on the website too.
