Make Up Challenge

This month the Girls Just Wanna Paint challenge is 

Make Up.

I have never been very good at wearing make up,

and always looked like a clown whenever I tried.

Clown Face 

6 x 6 

oil on paper 

I found an image on the internet,

printed it on heavy paper, and glued it to a foam board. 

Then I covered it with clear gesso. 

My idea was to paint directly on the photo,

as if I was putting the make up on her! 

I used soft acrylic brushes and did a lot of blending. 

Two things rather foreign to me. 

  Now you can see why I don't wear make up!
