30-Minute Acrylic Portrait: "Serious Self-Portrait"

--------------------------------------------------------------

In this 30-Minute Acrylic Portrait, I do a "serious" self-portrait, alla prima. (I should have painted myself smiling...oh well. :) ) I like the contrast and strong lighting on my face. It makes for a dynamic portrait, where it is fairly easy to build volume and form. In this video, I demonstrate how you can paint a portrait quickly, either to use as a study or the underpainting for a more polished work. Try this exercise and see what you can accomplish in a half-hour!
