Just finished the main color for the skin and the hair. It's looking good just need to add the different shades of color for them. Need to also add color to the lips and cheeks can't wait.

started painting today I'll continue it when I get bake tonight.

 "Words Do Hurt" is now on the Canvas.  After 4 hours of nonstop work, the base sketch is done.

I am working on my painting for the art competition VASE.  This is my last year to enter this competition. I have decided to make a big statement with my work. I'm vary excited for this new piece entitled "Words Do Hurt". I feel like there needs to be more work like this showing how words can and do hurt people. For this piece I'm going to even share with you some of the notes that have been given to me over the years. These notes were filled with words that have hurt me in the past. Now they are my inspiration for "Words Do Hurt". I will be creating this work on a 22 X 28 Canvas.
