Acrylic Portrait of a Young Woman at 19

This is a beautiful painting of a Young Woman at 19.

It is done in acrylic on canvas board. I was aiming at a freestyle approach to try to get something dramatic. The size is 16x20. I did it mostly to relax. I used a photo to compose the picture.

The background was painted several times and the portrait itself was a process of building up layers of acrylic until it was right. At first, the hair was white but it needed color so I put in the yellows but it still needed something, but the red was not my intent however when I saw how dramatic it looked I really liked it.

I had to go over the face several times before I got it right. I am very happy with it.
