Today for the Face Off, I am sharing a painting done in watercolor.
A number of years ago, I took a class with artist Janet Rogers. This was a watercolor class on flowers and portraits. Janet had a couple of paintings where she only painted a partial face. I was totally intrigued by them. So I did a few of them. This painting "That Look" was painted from a picture I took of a co-worker. I also did a full portrait of her, but I can't find a picture of it. I do love the way I was able to preserve the white areas in this.
Clicking the link will take you to her blog. It is great fun
to see how various people interpret the challenge.
Until Next Time,
Stay Creative

I love your part face. i nearly always paint part faces, too. Have a great weekend, Valerie
Hi Gene,
your watercolor face is really good! You have captured the skin color and face shapes very well. It's shame you don't find the whole face, I'd like to see it.
Happy weekend xx
This is wonderful!!
I still do not really dare to turn to watercolors...
Lovely!
OK... is there anything you can't do? This is fabulous. I love partial faces and this one done in watercolor is... well like I said fabulous. Thank you, Gene, for being a part of FFO.
LOVE it!! A partial face looks difficult to do - and in watercolors, too! WOW - that's impressive! - ;))
The face looks innocent with a sense of hope
How unique. I LOVE your use of white space and how you used the watercolors to your advantage. This is awesomely awesome!
Wow, that’s really good!
This is fabulous Gene! Happy weekend.
wow, this is one I really like. What a great idea and beautiful execution.
You are so talented!!!
