Ok, so this was "shaman funk" about an hour ago. Sometimes pure frustration and anger pays off in a way of thoughtless and energetic painting... Like this one.

Did some more acrylic work today before switching to oils. This one has potential, and i hope i dont screw it up

And again...

... This damn face dissolves when i put varnish on it. And so starts another monthlong process of fixing it. Oils are amazing, but they are highly unpredictable at times.

Damn oils!

This face is giving me a hard time. It was all done and dry when i decided to put some varnish on it before adding some finishing touches on it. Should not have done that at the time because it disolved half the face, and now i am trying to redo it. What you see now is the result of the first round of redoing, hopefully it will come out ok.
