Description Third project for Advanced Painting (2nd time)

This painting is an adaptation of my Children of Gaia print ([link] ) into painting.

Here I again experimented with makeup and my custom-made paint done with acrylic medium and blush powder. It actually worked pretty nice and i loved the color (it's the red in Gaia's petals).

I finished this painting way ahead of time (in mid spring-break week ), which gives me enough time to start up with the next projects (or maybe do personal ones ). I was able to finish up this early especially because I recently bought a good, sturdy easel for my home (finally!!), meaning that I didn't have to go all the way to the college studio to work on this! so happy!

Makeup, acrylic and colored pencils on paper. 22 x 30in

I sometimes feel like that too and when I'm done with a piece I sometimes ask myself "how were you able to come with this?", but it all has to do with how you feel during the process of creating a piece all those feelings show in a finished piece.
