More drawings and portraits

PORTRAIT 1

Found a magazine photo of celebrity Jeff Bridges which inspired me to use for a portrait painting.

This is the firsts stage of acrylic paint on canvas.

Scraped back then added more brush strokes.

Finally used dark paint scraped back with a wooden stick.

PORTRAIT 2

I couldn’t come to a conclusion with this painting so I tried adding a female head as an experiment.

Used a film still from a popular sci-fi film.

First paint to obliterate existing head.

Features in place I tried for more realism.

The current sci-fi inspired portrait.
