In this version of Determination I wanted an aged feel. Like the Greco-Roman wall paintings with cracks and peeling paint. A combination of pallet knife and brush work with an earthy color-pallet was used to achieve this texture. Water based oils are a beautiful thing. You can get the same affect as traditional oils, but with soap and water cleanup and the paint is non-toxic. Firstly, I did a drawn version; which is shown in my 'drawings' gallery. I then did a painted version before this one; which is in my 'horses and cowboys' gallery. That one is titled Painted Determination also, but is done entirely with a pallet knife and with a completely different color pallet.

Expressive Portraits Of Animals And People: Jani is an award winning water media/graphite artist who paints and draws people and animals in a loose, painterly style she calls impressionistic realism. "I love playing interesting colors against each other; creating movement and texture with all the different medias mixing the medias as needed to add another layer of character and depth. It fits my adventurous spirit." She intentionally leaves a little to the viewer's imagination so they can be a part of her emotive, story-telling artwork. Jani is accomplished in a variety of medias and offers her fine art skills for pet portrait commissions in graphite, charcoal, watercolor, acrylic and oil. Read More About Jani's Art Journey Here....
