I revisited an old portrait and decided I'd try getting a little bolder with some of the color. I'm pleased with the result here. It's always a back and forth, experimenting, trial and error, etc., just to find that place where you feel satisfied, or at least somewhat more satisfied.

Emergence

This is my most recent and possibly my most ambitious effort. This painting goes 2' x 2'.
I'm feeling good about this one but see it as a springboard for even better things. Each painting is a learning experience and slowly but surely I feel like I'm becoming less inhibited. I still want to do more and see where things take me. I have some ideas and thoughts about what that means but I'll just keep those thoughts to myself for now. I hope you like this one.
