Naomi portrait

This one I had in mind a particular thing, but it took a different path.

I was trying to emulate Christian Ward but I simply didn’t achieve that but I did get a nice portrait in the end I think. I was trying also to be loose with the paint.

I do like the state of mind I get into when painting…

The triangles came out well I thought.

Well proud of this one though, the largest and best non digital portrait I have done so far.

Model is Naomi Rufina from the excellent Draw Brighton archive.
