Inspiring Charcoal and Acrylic Painting on canvas

Di started on this mixed media black and white toned portrait of an elderley mongolian woman from a lonely planet image on a large canvas about 1x1 metre. Initial drawing was done with pastel and charcoal , washes of ink on the background followed by highlights of grey acrylic. Classes are on break until June so check back after that for an update.
