MADE IN JORDAN

We're on holiday in Amman at the moment.
But I did manage to find another amazing face to paint, and despite the fact that a similar image has been done to death commercially, I decided to give it a go.

TUTANKHAMUN - IS HE THE MOST FAMOUS EGYPTIAN?

Tutankhamun's burial mask in Cairo Museum


Well, is this the most famous Egyptian?
From a Western perspective, probably yes, although I suppose some Egyptians may have other views - eg Nasser, Sadat and Nobel Prizewinner Najib Mahfouz perhaps.
Anyway, I set myself the task of painting gold with watercolour.
It was easier than I thought it would be.
Want to give it a try?
Come on holiday to La Petite Galerie and we'll give it a go.
