Rice portrait


The first rice paper picture. I had a sketch of a face that I liked very much. The profile was just a line, but it had individuality. I liked the hair ornaments... everything. It was so simple. And that was a problem. I spent quite a time thinking how to remake it into a painting. At the end I gave up.
After some time I came to the idea of making a picture by layering sheets of ink painted rice paper, making them transparent with acrylic medium. I remembered that sketch. It was perfect for it : )
