I could use some guidance on this one...




I started this last night. It is of my grandfather, for my mother. He passed away a couple of weeks ago, so I am going off a poor photo and memory. The likeness is good, so that is not an issue. My problem is I have NEVER painted an older person. I only do children, with the occasional young mother. So this is new territory for me.

Karin, this is my first attempt also at using the Genesis paints you recommended, and I have to say- THEY ARE FUN! Because I bought the basic kit, I had a weird palette to work with, so that too has been a challenge.

Anyway, I could really use some advice on how to proceed with this. Thanks!
