Description
This is a portrait of Lidia Cristina Silva Reyes. She is an orphan from Venesuela. I participated in The Memory Project, a non-profit group started by a photographer. They send you a photograph of an orphan and then you can paint their portrait for them. You send it back to them and they can keep it. I did this for my Senior achievement project I had to do for school. Lidia will be getting her's soon I hope. I used acryilics because I was short on time...and that made it pretty hard for me to blend like i would have wanted to. You can probably tell this was my first try at a painted portrait, so please no critisism.
Here's my refrence photo they sent me [link]
