Challenge

 Hi everyone. Have you done challenges with your painting practice? 
It forces you to think & react differently from your
"normal" way of painting.

Recently I did this one with these strict parameters:

Finger painting - no brushes, no knives
Palette:
Yellow Ochre
Burnt Sienna 
Cadmium Red Medium
Payne's Gray
Viridian
NO white (none showing from the canvas nor used)
Self Portrait

I chose to use a mirror to paint myself.



I covered the canvas with a layer of yellow ochre. Yes, just using my hands.




These were some of the color combo's using the palette.




This is the beginning 👆 ... i forgot to take any mid-way pics.

Red Lipstick (A trope of femininity)  oil on "canvas" paper   16 x 12


I would love to hear if you have tried

a challenge.

What were your parameters?

How did it go?


Stay safe and happy painting!
