little tip: i see you don’t mark what colours are going where, you’ll probably find it easier to maybe write “b” fror the black sections, “dg” for dark grey sections etc etc… bit like paint by numbers? just a thought, you don’t need to take heed…whatever works for you ay! it’s great though. who’s it for? this is you isn’t it?
Jen Cannella replied
Yes, I noticed on yours you did that. Probably would have made it much easier…next time, I will! :)

Heyman Dude
1) how long to complete?
2) giving the gift of “YOU” to people is always a plus : )
3) the eyes are always my favorite in anyone’s art work and these are excellent. Great job.
Jen Cannella replied
Probably 25 hrs or so, total, 2 to 3 hrs at a time over a month.
It’s me cause I painted it, but you know it’s a painting of my daughter right?
Yes, I love eyes also…Thank you so much!
mmargot
I remember when you started…
...looks great, and, yes, a wonderful gift!
Jen Cannella replied
Thank you so much mmargot!
Sam Dantone
Great piece, Jen,
Mono in tone not expression. I really like the in process pic, it helps one appreciate your method and the work that goes into your painting…
Sam Dantone
Jen Cannella replied
Thank you so much Sam!
This and pen & ink stippling are my 2 fav types of art to do. It was also fun to do some hand lettering again!
Denis Dalby
Finished wth a flourish Jen. Great!

Matt Bottos
Wow … this amazing! Well done. the “making of” image is a great idea
Jen Cannella replied
Thank you very much Matt!
This is one of the few that I have taken progress pics, actually even finished pics of…...too bad most of my work went away unphotographed…....live and learn! :)
Sam Dantone
Hand Lettered?, Sorry, I assumed otherwise. Very nice. I own and run a sign shop. I don’t get to pull out the brush quite as often as vinyl, but letters are always a thrill…
Sam Dantone
Jen Cannella replied
HA, yes…I also am a sign painter with my own business. I have been doing it for 25 years now. So, of course, I learned to letter the good old fashioned way…also gold leafing doors and windows, pinstriping cars by hand while walking backwards with the brush. Ah, the good old days…swore I would never go vinyl……....................hahaha, so much for that. Vinyl lettering on vehicles is a definite time saver!!!
There is still NOTHING more satisfying than hand lettering something, ya know?
Heyman Dude
i did not know that. she looks just like you.
kudos for swimming in the deep end of the gene pool
Jen Cannella replied
Hahaha, thanks!
She has a smaller mouth and her tongue is more often in than out! ;)
Heyman Dude
well, i have found that the generations coming after us have found an irritating sense of
“adultness” about them.
Jen Cannella replied
Haha…yes indeed! :)
