Weekly Challenge Six

Abe and Again
6x8"
oil
The Challenge this week at http://www.dailypaintworks.com/Challenges is to paint Abe first with only burnt umber, ultramarine blue and white.  Then full color.  I'm thrilled to be a part of this learning experience.  A five dollar bill will never look the same to me.  And if you're thinking of purchasing my painting you'll need about twenty.

Nice job on the pair 'o Lincolns, Diane :). It's interesting how the feeling is changed between monochromatic and color portraits here. I'm thinking of giving this a try in pastel...

You should do it, Sonya! I'm sure pastel would be great. Thanks for your comment.
