Description This is my portrait I did a while ago This one together with, upcoming, portrait of my sister (or sisterS if I'll have enough patience) will be given to our grandparents. They always say they don't have any of my works so I'll give them this big trio and they will say no more.

The title is 'comb' because in the first sketches the Faeries were combing my messy hair. But then I've decided those combs look too big and heavy (and when smaller they would not look like combs at all) so I've changed them into ribbons. What's more - ribbons suit me better :3

I can say that the work is finished by now but probably while making my sister's portrait on a second fibreboard I'll add sth here and there on this piece. They need to look similar and my style changes recently like a weather outside my window - drastically. We'll see what will come out of this.

oils on fibreboard (about 80x60 cm, I don't remember exactly and I'm too lazy to go and check )

the execution of the painting is interesting. the manner in which you applied the paint is similar to the manner in which the impressionist would apply. there is a disjointed flow in the painting concerning the face. it is rendered in a manner that is so precise that it seems not to go to well with the rest of the painting. try smoothing about and avoiding line altogether. now, if the case is that you want a picture with a face that is very precise, then i would take a look at artist such as john singer sargent or even renoir.

That's sooooo cute! I love the messy hair being tied up in ribbons, it's very Cinderella. I like the thick paint and soft, yet auquatic, and unique colors.
