I've started my piece!! After Cambria's heavy inspo, I decided that I wanted to keep the general style of the painting very similar, but instead use my face and different strokes of a brush. Very quickly, I realized that the mistake I made by modeling my painting after Cambria's is that his was done on a wood board, which means that the bottom layer of color was very thin and acted almost like the canvas color rather than wet paint to work on. Therefore, during this process I had to often scrape off my work, and start again with thinner layers. Next time, I think I will use a cardboard palette because it works better since it soaks out the oil and allows me to have better use of my colors without it drying very quickly.
