Pip's 2021 Portrait

I try to paint Pip annually, usually around June/July but that went out the window this year and I found myself painting her portrait the week before Christmas. A hectic time of year but it was refreshing to just sit and paint something for myself and relax from the festive season buzz for a moment. 

So here it is. Pip's 2021 portrait. Painted will an assortment of media, but primary acrylic & pastel on flat, unstretched canvas.
