I recently completed a painting that I love and I wanted to share it with you!
I was interested in creating a face with lots and lots of texture. I wanted to see if I could push the face so that it's "off" but still reads as a face. For example, the lips are in the wrong place. On purpose. The eyes don't match. On purpose. And so on.
I used some iridescent paint in this piece. Thus, the photos above and below are very different (because of the light).
You can see the texture on this piece in these detail photos — especially the photo above!
There is some collage in the underlayers of this piece. So technically, it's not a painting. It's a mixed media collage.
I love the soft focus of it. And I think it stands out, even with a busy background, as in the photo below:
I hope you like it as much as I do! Thanks for stopping by!
A haunting painting. It seems to illustrate that there are many sides to a person–that they (we) can be more than one person and live more than one life. I love the texture and the asymmetry of the face. I think this is one of your best! Thanks for sharing it.

I love the texture and the colors and the sort of melty feel of it. And then right in the middle is that clear-eyed gaze. It’s penetrating. It speaks of clarity and strength. That gaze will never get lost in any backdrop!
