I taught an adult education class this afternoon with the 9-to-90 Creative Community at the excellent GS Artists on Swansea’s High Street. The theme was to paint a portrait of the Divine Diva, Dame Shirley Bassey. In TWO hours! A bit challenging 😀 But we did it. The results will be in the venue’s next exhibition that opens 5pm on Friday 1st December.
Here are the stages of my practice painting, which was done in Liquitex acrylic paints onto a stretched and recycled canvas and came in at 1 hour 50 minutes. I might do some more work on it before entering it for the exhibition though, bling it up a bit, make the skin tones more subtle and equalise the eyelashes.
