From blank canvas to finished masterpiece - my progress in the art studio, this week.
This week, I’ve been in full painting mode! Working on my couple portraits’ commissions but also starting big pieces. I’m happy because I’m having a balance in my art life. I also spend less time on Instagram, while also promoting my art. So, this is a great win!
So, if you remember from last week, I drew this lovely couple and was excited to start painting them. I’m very happy of the hairs’ texture. It’s so nice to play with the paintbrush for the hair. I’ll probably finish it next week. So looking forward!
I also started another couples’ portrait commission this week. I’m only at the drawing phase. The clients are happy with it, so far. We’ll see if I have enough time to begin the painting, this week. I’m really enjoying painting these couples’ portraits. It’s such an honour to share their unique love story to the world. I hope to paint, lots more!
So, this is the big painting that I’ve been working on between my couple’s portraits. I was feeling restless on Tuesday night. It had to come out! So, this is only the acrylic base, but I’m soooo looking forward to begin the oil paint. I’ll do it, step by step, really enjoying the process. I drew on another wooden board, but I’m not ready to paint it yet. It needs a lot more concentration, and I’m not feeling as calm and grounded, as I would like to be. Soon!
I hope you had an amazing week. See you next Sunday! Till then, have fun 🥳
Much Love 💕
