Oh my, I'm late for Paint Party Friday - again! But better late than missing it again. I didn't have much time to paint this week, but at least I started a new girl and I hope that I can get her finished over the weekend.
It's an 8x8 canvas. The heart was my first attempt to work with molding paste, and I love it. I'm also more daring now with faces, I've practised a lot and slowly I get a better grip of it. Shading is so important for faces, and I enjoy doing it. I wonder where this girl will go from here - at the moment I'm envisioning butterflies in her hair and a bird on her shoulder, but who knows whether this will really happen?
I would love you to check out Paint Party Friday - there are over 70 talented artists and it's a joy to look at their artwork.

She looks gorgeous already. :) I'm looking forward to seeing her finished.
Better late than never! Love how it's shaping up. I have trouble with shading if I'm drawing from my imagination. That's where photos really help, I think.

Your vision for her sounds great! I haven't tried modeling paste but sounds like messy fun :)

very nice creation, you have a talent, you know that!
She is looking quite beautiful already. I can't wait to see the finished piece! :-)
Look at her!! I bet she's going to be amazing!! Love how you're showing your 'process'.
fabulous background work, and I realise i haven't blogged my owl collage that you sent ( that I adore), it's because I hung it up in the living room and I keep forgetting to bring it back into 'my' room to photograph it!

You are tickling me to death with all your faces, Carola. :)

This is fantastic so far! Love the gorgeous, layered background and the heart is so cool! Once I experimented with molding paste, I loved it. Your girl will be beautiful. She's off to a wonderful start! :)
