What an emotive portrait. You imply a life story with this work and your use of tone is very impressive. Great work.

Brill....

Thank you everyone - my challenge is to try and stop being so detailed - so this was a breakaway in terms of both approach and tone

Very cleverly done Heather especially with that headline top right.

Admire this very much, the detail with freedom of expression.

I really like this effect. Great idea. A fun experiment in mixed media and collage!

This is wonderful, I love the layers peeping through!

Brilliant 'headline' for this one. It looks like your husband?

Very effective.

This is lovely! the newspaper really adds to the grittiness of the image. I know only too well how it feels to try to reduce the detail - so easy to get caught up in the little things and lose sight of the whole picture.

A very creative artistic concept !

Posted by Lea Cupial on Mon 04 May 00:52:06

This is so different Heather with just a suggestion of the face, a very successful piece.

Thank you for your comments on my Gallery they certainly helped with my motivation. I do not paint many portraits myself but appreciate the skill needed to paint these. This one in your galley I particularly loved its has a feeling of connection

An accomplished portrait, and the collage mix works very effectively.

About the Artist

Heather Love

I started to paint in 2018 . I started with acrylics and now use only oils and mainly canvas on board. Most of my portraits are 38 cms x 60 cms or thereabouts. Am still on a big learning curve but really enjoying the process and discovering new techniques very step of the way! I go to art class…
