Share your own digital speed portrait!

You’re welcome to either paint Malcolm X along with Nikkolas or choose someone you admire to create a portrait of. Then, set a timer (1-3 hours is usually a good length) and get painting!

Start by putting down big blocks of color and then erase, add different colors, and chip away at the painting until it captures the essence of your subject. Remember to move quickly and not get too caught up trying to make your painting look perfect! This is about challenging yourself to finish a piece of art in a short amount of time.

We’d love to see the portrait you create—please share your work in the project gallery!
