Welcome, welcome, Day 29 of 29 Faces, we finally got here! This piece has been painted onto canvas which has been painted initially in a mixture of gold and other acrylic colors. I then found the final character in the 29 Faces series to come and tell their story.

Welcome to day 28
I have so enjoyed creating the faces so far that I think I will continue in some form. I feel that each character that I have been creating has a story to tell, I am just the bridge that enables them to come out on the page.

Welcome to day 27, which finds me using quite a bit of texture within the piece. I used 3d paint as a first layer in swirls and once that was dry created the image.

Welcome to the last few days of the 29 Faces challenge. I have been enjoying taking the time to create a face each day and I like how they are all coming out. I think these last few days have been my favorite, and I guess I have found the style that I enjoy working on.
This piece I think is one of my favorites and it started out as a page I was taking off extra paint, and Amanda Troughthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06065774506000203979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2987868390851235901.post-45129535256997983402016-02-25T04:00:00.000-05:002016-02-25T04:00:12.427-05:0029 Faces - Day 25

Welcome to today's images for 29 Faces. I had got so engrossed with completing the faces that I forgot to post what I had done. The idea for me for the challenge is to make some art each and every day. I know that when you practice something you hone your skill and ability. It is allowing me the opportunity to try different styles and decide what I like about each and Amanda Troughthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06065774506000203979noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2987868390851235901.post-4646380194525679252016-02-13T02:00:00.000-05:002016-02-13T02:00:04.354-05:0029 Faces - Day 13Welcome to day 13 of 29 Faces.
Today I decided to try something different, it all started out as a doodle, which I haven't done for a while. Doodling is a great way to unwind and relax. The more I did the more I wanted to complete it and use it as part of the challenge. Again, you can challenge yourself anyway you choose, and what you put in you will definitely get out of it.

Are you still doubting whether you can be part of the challenge, don't, because even though it's day 12 you still have the opportunity to do 17 faces, that is 17 more than you would have done if you tell yourself that it is too late.
There is so much to gain from being part of any challenge, you push yourself, you show up for you each and every day.

Another mixed media page, with the foundation being journaling and then creating an image that expresses what is written. It will be interesting looking back on these pages to see if they still capture the emotion further down the line.

I do enjoy making up my own faces, and more and more I find that the faces I paint are usually expressing something from my own life. What do you find yourself drawing or painting the most? If you have just started out on your journey what kind of faces do you find yourself most drawn to?
