Alla Prima #5 - Self

I am preparing for another larger scale self-portrait soon.  The image I have in my mind is pretty much set, I just hope I can pull it off.  In the meantime, I did another alla prima study in preparation for it.  I didn't make a video of it.. which, as it turns out, was a good idea because this took longer than I expected.  I am hoping my perfectionism won't be my downfall.  The palette for this one was white, cad yellow, cad orange, indian red, burnt umber, and sap green.  Enjoy!
