Gabby: 2 days





7/26/2026



This image is the result of the first two days of painting, which establishes the foundation for much development and refinement in the days and weeks ahead. I ask those who view this image not to consider it as finished since I will return to the face many more times. Today I will move on to other areas, giving the face and hair necessary drying time.



It has been a busy summer, but I have found some hours to invest in Acacia's portrait. I put a lot of work into the mountainous background as well as perfecting some subtle details in her face and further developing her hair.
