my wife (WIP)

Hello

This is a WIP of my wife.
dimensions are 80x100 cm and I use mixed techniques (charcoal and acrylic paint)
Later on I will use pastel as well, I think.
best regards
krico

It's extremely good! I like the fluidity of it, the movement suggested. I also like the technique.

This is great as it is! Beautiful pose, drawing, and technique. Do another and add the other mediums.

Goodness! I heartily agree with Ken! Leave it as is. Speaks volumes and is quietly beautiful.

By all means do another as you described adding other mediums.

Re: my wife (WIP)

I like this just the way it is.
What is the surface? Were the acrylics tube or bottle acrylics?

Re: my wife (WIP)

Thank you all! But I'm afraid it's too late, in the meanwhile I've been painting more on this portrait, but I'm sure it will work out fine. I'll share the result.

@Wassi: It's an normal canvas for acrylic paint and I use a mix of tubes and bottles (Brand = Talens)

best regards
