These are stages one and two of painting a head. In the first picture the pencil drawing is glazed with a thin coat of burnt sienna acrylic.In the second picture, oil colors are blocked quickly one next to the other with a flat brush, in this case a number 4.
The picture on the left shows the blending of the colors. This is done with a soft, round, watercolor brush, number 6 for this one. In the picture on the right we see the finished head. Details have been added as needed.
The whole process of painting the head has taken one hour. The size of the head is around 3.25" from the top of the head to the chin

How economical, I can't believe you only put an hour into that face. Beautiful. I'm really glad you two have a blog, I'm looking forward to future posts.
Wow, fantastic. I absolutely LOVE seeing process photos, I'm really excited to see what else you add to this as time goes on. How large is this head anyway??
Hi Boris,
I really enjoy the process shots and your blog. I wanted to thank you for calling out which type of brushes you use. That's good information to have. Thanks.

Economical indeed. Now my only question is that burnt sienna glaze oil or acrylic before the oils?
Thank you guys for taking the time to put this together.
Thank you all so much for all the comments. I have added a couple of words to the description of painting the head demonstration to make the process clearer and answer your questions.
