Bitter
I think she looks more bitter in real life That is to say, the original seems, to me, to have a more emotive feel to it than does the scan.
Can’t bloody remember the date I finished this. Shall have to get back to you on that. It is acrylic on canvas, 16” x 20” and is of absolutely no one in particular.

hummm well she looks like she is sticking her tongue out!

lol you’re right lol I never noticed that before. To me, she just looks like she has a tremendously large bottom lip that isn’t shaded as well as the top. Of course,I once knew a man who had lips like that, where the top one was darker than the bottom, the bottom one stuck out further. It was odd, but not unattractive. I think the scan made it look worse, though. sigh I shall see if I can fix it.

(sigh) Never mind. I decided it can darn well be left up to individual interpretation. To me it looks like a big bottom lip that the makeup has worn off of, and some unexplainable lines. To you, it looks like tongue. That’s fine. I suppose bitter people could stick their tongues out, if it would help them.
