First of all, my mum doesn't look this old and scary in real life! I made it look this way as Lucian Freud was my influence, hence the depressed face!
This was my first ever oil painting and is probably my best portrait I've done so far so I'm definitely going to use oil paints more often, whenever I can buy canvasses since you can't use them on paper!
I hope to produce a lot more work like this soon which I'll use in portfolios when applying to university art courses as I really enjoy doing them and I think they show my ability well :)
