Friday Face Off 1/1/2026

 

 Welcome To Friday Face OFF (FFO)
This is the place to show off your face art.
You know, ANY type of face, nature, the face of a flower, Photography, drawings, paintings. There just needs to be a face in your blog post.
 
Well I'm off to an epic start with FFO 2026. Totally forgot to post it last night.  
I'm here now and it is Friday. 
For this first week of FFO I have a colored pencil piece. She starts like this.
 
Then this 
 
And I finished with this.
I had so much fun with her.
I did add a bit a pastel to the top of her head and used ink for her eye lashes.
 
I have a few AI pieces that are all pretties. 
These are all old pieces.
 
I love the yellow in this next one. 
 
Lovely paintings

Now it's time to show some features.
I want to say that last year all of you went above and beyond with your art. I saw so much adventure and people tying new things. It inspires me to be better in my art. I truly can't wait to see what all of you create in this upcoming year.
First up
I'm not a thief but I would find a way to get this red coat. LOL
It  must be coat day.  From the wonderful Iris and this is her husband Ingo. Again I would like this coat too. 

Christine always has something 
cute gong on.

Don't forget the new challenge. You have one month left.
FFO Challenge
The new challenge is to create a portrait of anyone you want. It can be your family, friends, actors, faces you find on the internet, or a perfect stranger that will allow you a photo to work from and to show with your portrait. You can work in any medium, except photography and you have until Friday January 30, 2026.  Make it fun and let's see what you come up with. 
Remember this is optional. I still want to see all of your wonderful faces. 
 
That's it for me. Now its time to show me your face.

Every hockey game begins with a faceoff, and sometimes they are a draw, if you see what I mean. 😇
