Juliana, first sitting

Juliana, first sitting, acrylic on paper, 14x18, Patricia Bennett

My neighborhood model sat for me today.  I got the drawing in, then started the painting.  She's coming back tomorrow.

Acrylic is a delicate balance between too thick and too thin.  Also, I will redo the background to make it "match" the shading on her face.  And the yellow that I covered the entire thing in is...  Not sure why I did that, except that she mentioned Australia.
