In May 2023 I painted the portrait of a redhead in oil pastel. It turned out O.K., but I was never quite happy with it. So today, I present to you the do-over of this idea. I basicallly copied the face of my original painting, but with a little finer shading. The abstract elements of the hair and background I did freely.
Honestly, I'm still not that happy with it. I guess abstract art is just not my calling...

Im Mai 2023 habe ich ein Porträt einer Rothaarigen mit Ölpastellkreiden gemalt. Es war ganz ordentlich geworden, aber wirklich zufrieden war ich nie damit. Heute präsentiere ich euch eine überarbeitete Version dieser Idee. Ich habe das Gesicht meines ursprünglichen Gemäldes kopiert, aber mit etwas mehr tonaler Finesse. Die abstrakten Elemente der Haare und des Hintergrunds habe ich frei gestaltet.
Um ehrlich zu sein, bin ich immer noch nicht ganz zufrieden damit. Ich schätze, abstrakte Kunst ist einfach nicht mein Ding...

So now you're also playing with oil pastel...interesting.
I like the colour, so vibrant!
This is an oil painting, which is why the colors are so vibrant. It's a redo of an oil pastel painting of mine from 2023. I haven't used oil pastels in a good while. 😀
Wow! This is one of my favourite ever 😍
