This Self-portrait was done using the Alla Prima technique (wet-in-wet)-oils without medium, in one 3.5hr sitting.

This is only my second ever self portrait and I am happy with the result and technique used. (I dont paint in oils, I paint in acrylics). Very time consuming technique...not one I would want to use all the time.

Image taken from a photograph of me.
