was called "no identity" but its been removed

This is one of my favorite pieces! I was inspired by Ben Dagger.

Its 36" x 36" on canvas

Ink, and Acrylic Paint.

Steps:

sketched on the subject matter (faces)

I stood the canvas up and globbed on watered down arylic paint then i let it drip

I did this several times.

started adding the shadows to the face: around nose under cheek bones, chin, and neck

layers of the shadow

after i was pleased with the placement of the shadows, i started outlined with black ink using twigs....yes twigs :)

I then used the black ink for shadows around the eyes: between nose and eyes and under eye as well as eye lids.

and done!
