Sunday Sketches

Hi guys, this week I painted my ladies from last Sunday's Sketches. If you would like to see how my lady with her eyes shut turned out I have blogged about it in my last post here

As for this post I've got my lady with the profile to show you. Not one of my favourites but a good experiment all the same!!! I think this week I'd like to tackle different skin tones and perhaps a full figured painting :0)

 I did enjoy painting the hair on this one though :0)
Hope you are all having a great weekend! :0)

    Super!!

    I too love how you ignore the page break and the coils. Hard to do! You've done it so well!
