beautiful colours.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I love her expression. Very pretty and very alluring. In the sketch, I can see more of a grin on her face. I like both of them.
ReplyDeleteYou know, this is one of those times in my life - specifics aside - where certain things contribute to my survival instinct and, not that I expect it really matters, your art is something that inspires me and also gives me something to escape to. You're a fantastic artist.
I very much admire you.
Brilliant, I think. Great bone structure is what comes to my mind first. I like looking back and forth from the sketch to the painting. Dazzling work, you have a wonderful facet.
