Painting Overview
I am continuing the project “Photos from the trash bin”. Photo defects can be not only technical or expositional. These can be compositional mistakes of the photographer, or behavioral mistakes of the model.
This sweet girl decided to improve her hair at the most crucial moment. In theory, it’s rubbish.
But I thought it was wonderful that it happened that way. Maybe it didn’t work out very well with the face, but it’s not the most important thing in a portrait. Emotion, character, mood. Everything is in place.
So the portrait is not so bad. And most importantly, many shy girls recognize themselves in this. And maybe they will smile.
