#100days 2021

This is my third year doing #the100dayproject and once again, my subject is portraiture celebrating women.

I went on an interesting journey this year, knowing I wanted to explore color and thinking I needed to get looser in my approach. Ironically, I found myself getting more and more uptight about the need to get loose, until I recognized that my favorite portrait artists aren’t necessarily loose at all. What they are, is expressive, providing a window into the soul of their subjects. That’s what I’m looking to do this year, digitally, in the Procreate app, and in paint. Likeness is secondary to expressiveness.

Some subjects are being painted in both mediums, some in just one.
