Pretty French Waitress With Drop Dead Gorgeous Roquefort! 2020. Acrylic on paper, 12 x 16"
Money was tight during lockdown year 2020. I vowed to used what I had on hand to paint my way through it. Things wore down, but never my patience. My favorite brushes frayed, and I began to paint with more of a scribble gesture. I actually enjoyed it very much and continue the practice now.
Below is a painting of one of the several brushes that just got too out of hand. Followed by several portraits in the same style.
I rarely draw before painting. I use the brush as pencil and pen.
