Eggscuses

This is an egg based tempera painting I made at a workshop on the Wyeth family where we all tried out one of Andrew Wyeth's mediums of choice. The process kind of reminded me of dying Easter eggs mixed with making french toast, but you know, painting.
It might look like this painting kind of sucks, but it was made on a tiny 3" x 4" piece of paper and painted with a medium that dries out within seconds and I only had the three primary colors to work with plus it was my first time using it, which is all really just a bunch of excuses for why it isn't very good.
On the plus side though, it does kind of look like the German mechanic guy who gets splattered by the flying wing in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
