Hi Sharon, that portrait is really amazing. All the attention is drawn right to her face with the use of such a subtle palette. I found myself looking around to take in the whole thing then resting right back on her face. That's an interesting way to direct the eye.

I flipped back and forth between the two versions of my painting too, and couldn't believe the difference in both drawing and color. It looks much more like him too! I'm very lucky to have such a willing model available.

I really appreciate all your suggestions and headbanging too!

Jean
