Art In Minds (AIMS) - The Gallery - Face Value - Family Portrait (Work in progress)

I am currently studying graphic design at Demonfort University. I have been interested in art since childhood and find it very rewarding and therapeutic. I like to explore my potential and when painting a portrait came along I thought it would be a challenge.

I have always wanted to paint portraits but the way I was taught at school was very technical. I have really enjoyed the portrait workshop and it has opened a new chapter in my artistic ability.

I’ve found it difficult to stay motivated in terms of painting and drawing and painting portraits has woken me up and given me a different perspective on my ability. I intend to continue painting portraits. I want to practice as much as possible so that I feel comfortable and develop my own style.

Eventually I would like to incorporate my own visual language into my portraits to make them more distinctive.
