Mike, I wish there were an icon on the right of this reply box for "Head on Keyboard, Weeping With Laughter".

I feel that I'm getting undue credit here for the beauty of my sitter. I've decided that I'm only going to paint gorgeous young girls from now on.

Claudemir, this painting started out in a vertical format and was supposed to be painted solely from life, two hour sessions every day. But by the end of the second week I had turned it horizontally (all those verticals seemed too much for a vertical format) and took photos of the sitter to finish the painting. (Sigh!) I had considered putting some flowers or a plant behind the chair but I thought it might add too much sentimentality to what I wanted to be a direct and intense portrait.
