6"x6", oil on gesso board
I did this painting last week, but didn't shoot till today.
This painting is done from a woman's mugshot, looking very pissed off.
I am not sure that she is a celebrity or not. Maybe she is.....
I signed up some art classes at nearby community college: Oil painting and Print Making. The Fall term started two weeks ago, keeping me very busy. Also signed up Boot Camp style exercise program. Boot camp is Monday through Thursday, from 5:15 till 6:30. This program is a merciless real killer. Through oil painting class, I am learning how to build the canvas from the scratch. Go to Home Depot, get the materials for stretcher bars, learn how to cut the bars, stretch canvas on the frame, prepare canvas with gesso .....
I get more fit and stronger and paint till 100 years old!!
Sounds like a good plan?

Beautiful work, Hye.
I love your plan, Hye! I hope I can paint to 100, too. I did start rather late.
This is a great painting. Love the grays around yer eyes and under the chin. Lovely warm colors on the cheeks and forehead. Very nice!
All wonderful Portraits Hye. Well done and all the best.

Getting fit and living and painting to 100 does sound like a good plan but we hope you can fit some paintings in now . . . missing your posts.
