This one ended up in two halves each about 30 mins as I got interrupted in my first attempt. I was inspired this week by facial expressions and chose to do Dexter Morgan from “Dexter”. I chose this subject as his facial expressions during the series are interesting and often conflicting with his own thoughts. The character has to hide his true self from all those around him however on occasion a subtle expression such as the one I have tried to capture shows a glimpse of the darkness inside.
I have always struggled painting expressions so this paint was a definite challenge and although I ran out of time an had to use a cheesy background I am rather pleased with the outcome. I feel that improvement is becoming visible in my work.
