This is a 6x6" oil painting of my daughter, and another paintover. You can see in the progress shots below that I painted over another portrait. The underpainting made it very challenging to get the features of the new painting in the right place. I definitely relied on that grid.
I really liked having some of the purple shine through, and I liked leaving everything except the face as big shapes. The face is also a bit more graphic than I normally paint, but I like that, too!
