I’ve made it up to day 10 of my daily portrait painting in 30 minutes challenge. I am really loving challenging myself in this way and I have been a little obsessed with getting my painting done everyday. Even in my messy studio, I’ve been having to paint these faces.
On Friday, I had this wild idea to do some late spring cleaning in my studio. Now I am in the middle of a pile of SO MUCH STUFF!! How does this happen? I emptied out 4 bins of stuff only to refill them with other stuff. I am letting go of some cool fabric that I know I won’t use and I have lots of old original painting that I don’t know what to do with. Out with the old, in with the new. Something has to happen.
I am so enjoying seeing all the faces you are creating Regina. It is very inspiring and motivating! I have drawn a lot of faces that I want to paint – but dont seem to get around to sitting down and painting!!! Thank you for the inspiration and for sharing your beautiful art with us.
Your portraits are magic, and together like this they are so beautiful as a story almost. I hope you can manage the studio, but if not, studios are supposed to be a bit messy, right? 🙂
They look great Regina. My favorite is the one in the upper left corner. Thanks for sharing and I hope your cleaning has been going along well. xo
I love the lady in the lower left with the scribbley hair!
I’m also in the process of organizing my studio, which includes gessoing over some old paintings. They had their day; no one bought them; I took pictures; time to move on. I try to remind myself that every sketch I’ve ever done is not a precious treasure. That frees me up to save my favorites, mulch the rest.
Ahhh, spring cleaning. It does a soul good. Plan on doing that to my studio sometime soon too!
The faces are very pretty. The other 4 to.
