I've been really inspired to get back into oils lately and even more inspired to do some full portraits with said oils. So a new project is launched; one that concentrates on natural beauty, simplicity, and monochromatic colors. Hopefully I can get some models lined up for photos sometime soon. I've found that it's good for me to have something else happening artistically (whether it's a craft project, decorating project, or just a different style of artwork) in busy times like the holidays coming up. That way I don't feel totally overwhelmed or get burnt out from painting pop portraits back to back. So without further ado, here's the first in what (hopefully) will be a small series of paintings in this project!
Please note: It was incredibly difficult to get a good picture of this painting. The colors are actually more vibrant- a soft pink in the background that fades into her skin. But my camera just wasn't measuring up :(

I'm excited for the way it came together and am looking forward to what's next!
