Description: Well, hello there! This is a self-portrait I created as part of a big secret art project I can't tell you about...yet. But I will, I promise! The painting took around three hours to create, so to edit it down to a manageable length, I had to speed it up quite a bit (25x!). I hope this might give you a glimpse into my painting process, but honestly it's too fast to really get a handle on what colors I'm mixing--sorry if that's what you were looking for. As I mentioned in the video, I don't have blue hair, but it can appear that way depending on the lighting. "They" wanted something loose and colorful, so I decided to take that blue idea and have some fun with it. New videos will arrive later this summer (after I've finished this big project). Thanks so much for watching my videos and being so patient with me! You may have noticed that I've changed the name of my channel! It's now Kelly Eddington Watercolors and is a little less confusing.
