Recently I have been experimenting with acrylic paints, I like the quick drying time that this medium provides. One thing that bothers me a little about this medium is that the colors always appear slightly darker as they dry. I used a stippling technique to model the face, the only time I used solid strokes was in the early block in stages, and while painting the hair and clothing.

This portrait was painted on a hardboard panel primed with Gesso measuring 16 X 22 inches.
