Days 27-28 - Mod Duo

My husband purchased some 3x4 canvases for me to help me reach the goal of completing the challenge, and after spending two and a half hours on a portrait (then pitching it in the trash can amidst a shower of swear words(, I made a decision to pare down and try a mod style, which is not anything I've ever done before:

What amazes me every time I try something new is how quickly I learn things.  Don't make big steps between values on a painting of this type.  Don't go halfway with a lean when you could go all the way with a Dutch angle.  Don't overcomplicate something, thinking that you HAVE to swear and suffer or it can't be done.  It can be.  It's cool.
