Live by the sword, die by the sword, paint with a knife
As an exercise, I reproduced Bere only using my palette knife, with no blending. It required the marks to be more considered, in both mixing and placement. I used acrylics because I wanted this to be a quick exercise. The Bere I did in oils at Christmas is still too wet to varnish. Call me impatient!

The texture is very interesting and tactile. A very expressive and intense portrait.
Thanks Shelley. It was fun to work on.
