Michele,

Another beauty! As with the Shauna portrait, your handling of light on the foliage fits perfectly with the composition. You seem to have everything right in these recent portraits. I agree with Chris about the hair. This one is very Bougereauesque in the handling of the hair and the modelling of the face. Thanks for posting these. It helps to see what you've done and try to pick up some pointers, even if the work is beyond my ability to critique. If we try to replicate your efforts, just remember: "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery."

John
