From Abstract to Face

 After spending the last 3 years in painting abstracts, I decided to switch to faces.
More faces have appeared in my studio since October 2011.

FRIENDS, each face is on a 16 inch x 20 inch canvas.

The making of a face.

 Oil on canvas.  This is my "first brush".

 After letting the paint settle for a day, I added another layer, bearing in mind the light and darkness.

Another 2 more layers of oil paint to finish the face. 

I have begun to enjoy painting faces. 

And now embarking on the journey of painting 60 faces
