This is the portrait of legendary Assamese singer Dipali Borthakur, which I have painted for the second time with acrylic. There was a strong contrast of light and shadow in this painting, which makes it more interesting to paint.
I started with the darker shades first, then followed by the mid-tone and highlight at a later stage. I use multiple layers of paint to get this finish. It's my heartfelt tribute to her timeless voice and spirit.
Hope you will enjoy it🖌️
