Acrylic Painting - Mermaid Face in Time Lapse

I'm painting a mermaids face here in acrylics, using the same method I would with watercolors. I don't normally finish the face before the rest of the artwork but did this for the video. The actual time taken was about 30 minutes.

@alamahao It's Arches Smooth (hotpress) watercolour paper, pretty much what I always use.
