Tom, you are to me the complete portrait pro, and I always treasure your compliments, thank you!
Richard, I really appreciate your kind support and I'd love to see you at an open studio session one of these days.
Terri, if I could paint those elegantly subtle transitions found in your paintings, I wouldn't be splashing all this paint around.
Patricia, you have such a fine and sensitive eye in your own work - thank you for your post.

Linda oh Linda - I am speechless! That is simply gorgeous! Her LIPS!
Can you share what sort of palette & set-up you take with you to open studio?

Linda, is such a joy to see your work, and what work!
And this is so...you, lips included!
I am most of all speechles for your speed: if you'd see where I am after three hours! I'd have barely filled in the biggest areas, I think!
Looking forward to see the other work

I third that! O no dear Linda, I don't mean I hate you, I mean this is a gorgeous accomplishment. The transitions are wonderful. Congratulations!

Linda, you are Awesome! x 10
I can see your inspiration as you were presented with this challenge. It seems to me that You love a good challenge. Understanding the basic principles of painting and using them is the foundation, as you so nicely pointed out. After that it is to match the shapes and hue at proper value. You have done all that and wallah! A wonderful luscious portrait study.
Linda, thank you for reminding me and sharing with us!

Michelle, your twenty bucks are in the mail.  I especially appreciate this from you since I know you earned your dues on the street drawing passersby, as did I. You know, I really am taking entirely too much credit here for the knockout beauty of this model. The way the light hit that jaw - it just blew me out of the water. I've been painting in life classes and open studios for ... hmmm... maybe fifteen years, nine of them here in the Valley where I have good access to models. When things click it is a huge rush of endorphins.
Speedy painting from life like this is probably kind of a parlor trick, like juggling or maybe flipping your eyelids back on top of your eyeballs.
Mischa, you are very kind to say this, and I'm really enjoying your wit and talent here on the Forum.
Julie, I also enjoy your work, and thank you for these kind comments!
