New Series: Expressions

My art teacher, Dan Thornhill, is always encouraging me to do paintings in a series. I started with the girl and decided to do a series in this different style of "Expressions". I'm really excited as I brainstorm for the next pieces!
"CHEERFUL"


"DISCONTENT"

1,2,3

 Occasionally I remember to take pictures of the process as I work. Here are two work in progress paintings in 3 steps.
