The Girl with the Green Hair Number 2

I painted another version of the Girl with the Green Hair.  Same size as before, but a slightly different pose.  I am enjoying painting faces (or this one face).  I think I will carry on with this series for awhile.  This is painted in oils on Ampersand Gessoboard - love the stuff.

It's funny, but my husband said that yesterday's version of the green haired girl looked like a young Hilary Clinton and I think today's version looks like Salma Hayek with a green wig!  LOL

I posted this painting for sale on my website, Pandora's Parlor and also on ebay here.

The Girl with the Green Hair

I've always been a big fan of the old Night Gallery TV show and today's painting was inspired by spending a lot of time in the dark watching every creepy episode as a child.  This is The Girl with the Green Hair.  A slightly different take on portrait painting : - )  I tried hard to capture the far away look in the eyes and the creepy doll-like face.

You can see this painting on my Daily Paintworks Gallery page, and it is available here on Ebay.

Still Life - Creepy Doll Head with Teeth

Another slightly twisted still life today!  This little creep not only has scary teeth of her own, but she is posing next to a pair of plaster teeth!  I worked a little larger today, 8 inches by 8 inches (yeah I know, that's not large!!)  LOL  I originally attempted this painting with acrylics, but I can't paint flesh tones with acrylics to save my life - so out came the oils for this one.

Here was my reference photo - one I took of an antique wax doll head that is for sale on my website.

You can see this painting and all of my others on my Daily Paintworks Gallery page here.  You can purchase this painting from my website, Pandora's Parlor, here.

Creepy Still Life Painting - Antique Baby Doll Head on a Book

I sell creepy antiques and oddities for a living and I love to paint.  So what better still life subject than a creepy antique baby doll head?!  Not your usual apples and vases!  I like to paint as loose as I can and this little painting has some nice brushstroke bits.  I painted in oil today because I knew I would need to do some blending.

This little night gallery style painting is available on my Daily Paintworks website here.
