Pink Girl

13.5x13.5 mixed media (acrylics, India ink, oil pastels) on pink matboard done today.  After doing so many self portraits for Sketchbook Skool either from life, photos, or imagination I decided to put eyes in with India ink then develop the rest with no reference.  Instead of a brush I used an old credit card to scrape areas of wet acrylic and to layer.  So this is not me, just an imaginary pink girl! Total fun playing with paint.
