The Eye

there is something special about the eyes. They are so expressive. They they tell a story.  A portrait doesn't seem to come together until you get the eyes right.

With this paint I demonstrate the process of blending acrylic paint. I get an awful lot of question on this subject. Truthfully its the hardest aspect of acrylic painting or just something to learn. It depends entirely on our prospective. Instead of showing a speed painting of the portrait, I expose this method by painting the sphere to right.
