Acrylic paint on board.

This portrait is fundamentally an experiment with different techniques, mediums, and tools-- using the element of colour as a medium to bring variety and unity to counteract any chaos within the portrait. This portrait also explores the concept of canvas vs paint, questing the role in which the canvas plays in a finished piece of work.
