Island Breeze by @SilverVyxen (Tori Batalo)
This is a painting I have been working on for awhile. I am going through a self portrait phase, and I think I am coming to the end of it. I have one other painting to finish and then we'll see if I do any more self portraits. i really dont like drawing people, but while I was student teaching in high school this semester, I got all caught up in it and started producing slef portraits left and right. I dunno, it was weird. Anyways, I am taking pictures of my art for my portfolio, so as I take pics I'll probably put art on here. I am also going through and deleting old art that wasn't all that good to begin with. Anyways, this is my island self portrait.
The time spent on this was worth it. Her hair color blends so nicely together and possesses such nice depth. Also the strong contrasts in the picture are stunning and enhance the color greatly.
