Hi Everyone,

Thanks
SteveJanuary 15, 2018 at 10:18 am #545972January 15, 2018 at 11:53 am #545970Welcome to the forum Steve – and what a lovely piece to bring!
For a first use, you’ve done really well – a) a portrait and b) skin tones .. as well as finding acrylics are hard to blend for that skin ……. I like the way you’ve used the tones and the brush!Looking forward to seeing more!
We run a monthly challenge called Different Strokes – near the top of the forum – often makes us think differently and it’s fun! Do take a look and it would be nice to have you join us.:)
Cheers, Maureen

It’s so easy to age children in paintings and I think you’ve done well in keeping him youthful.

Liquitex makes Slo Dri Blending Medium. It helps with blending.
A painting is never really done as long as I can get my hands on it.
