Should've posted on this earlier, but I've been time-constrained until recently. But now, then...

Yes, this is the next level for you, Jimmie - as I'd said in the critiques section regarding this portrait. And I don't mean that with regard to your technical proficiency - though it's coming faster and better already - I'm referring to subject and mood. We're edging the provocative rather than the evocative in this piece. This is a good, dynamic area to explore, and basically takes your solid portrayal of character and turns up the volume on it. Pretty soon, we'll have to get you an amp that goes to eleven. (Spinal Tap joke... Hello? Is this thing on?)

Congratulations on yet another strong finish, Jimmie!
