28 Faces done. Babies, Dogs, and Leprechauns. PPF, Paint Party Friday

I am grateful to Paint Party Friday for inspiring me to log my weekly paintings.  Being retired, I am able to paint every day, so it seems like a lot of completed projects, but I keep busy!

My last two were dog faces done in a watercolor class.

Day 26: Face 26 "Stylish Lady"

ACEO:  "Stylish Lady" with hat and gloves

Although you cannot see the gloves, I am sure she is wearing them.  Her stylish outfit demands white gloves.  Watercolor and pen.

#3 and #4 of 29 faces in Feb 2013

Two More Faces/Portraits:  Very loose watercolor and pen, abstract style, done for 29 faces challenge.  Illustrative, figurative, not sure what would describe it best.  I like the looseness and the freedom of painting the washes first and then doing a bit of liner work and finding the face in there.  Bright colors and pensive expressions.  My new style.
