  1. I feel that you went out of your comfort zone with this one, more focus on the watercolors and less on your lines. I love your lines, but this is still a great painting.

    Happy painting

  8. Masterfully executed. The feeling in the eyes and gesture in the face around the mouth has so much power. I think that the upturned collar adds a visual punch!
