Every now and then I run across a subject

that completely inspires me.

I am absolutely blown away by this beautiful women.

She is beautiful in her heart and her soul.

She is kind and generous and

lets our dear Lord and savior guide her.

She has been truly blessed and I feel the same to have

been able to have such a beautiful face

as a subject for one of my portraits.

Bless you Brandi.

And Thank you.

Be sure to check out my website.

I paint with acrylic paint. And the subject of under painting?

All my painting start with an under painting.

I don't do it in the traditional way though. Well I may not eve know for sure

what the traditional way is because I am not a trained painter.

I under paint all my painting in thin layers of colors

that I will be used in the same colors that will complete the painting.

Not being an educated painter I'm guessing when I say that

under painting is used to determine if you have you paint value correct.

I never seemed to need to know if it was correct or not because

The Values in my paintings always seem to appear correctly for me anyway.

So hear you go.

Just the beginning and will post as I do more.
