Description I'm not sure what the exact definition of a speed painting is but for me this was one. I did it in 2 hours. I have to admit it was hard for me not to get in and be OCD about details. Normally I'll work a painting to the point of ruination because I can't leave it alone. I actually feel exhausted and a little sick after finishing a painting because I stress so much over every tiny detail. This was refreshing! It may sound stupid but I challenged myself with this one. I set a time limit of 2 hours to finish it. I decided to focus most of my time/attention on the eyes and lips and leave the rest loose. It didn't mean I was going to post it, only I would have known I pushed myself outside of my comfort zone. But I did it!! And it didn't turn out half bad. You have no idea how proud I am of myself for setting a time limit and walking away when the time was up! So I'm sharing my triumph over my ridiculous obsession with detail with all of you!

Tammara, this is so beautiful. I am proud of you too. I know how feels about being obsessive over details to the point of stressing out. So, again, I am so proud of you.
I love the look of passion for life in her eyes. Her lips are perfect. The wisps of her hair around her face is just awesome. The details are perfect.
This took you only two hours, man, you are super good.
Everything you do is beautiful.
