Good gravy, you've been practicing a bunch!
This isn't the easiest lighting setup, yet you have handled it with great skill. A lovely portrayal of a lovely little girl; surely something to treasure.
Ampersand gessoboard, huh? Did you hit it up with additional coats of gesso? The reason I ask is that not a few of my students have brought it to class, and during the underpainting stage (Gamsol & raw umber block-in), the board sucked up the Gamsol like a thirsty dog. Wiping out highlights proved impossible; the pigment had become imbedded into the porous surface. Any problems of this sort?
