lost in thought


I'm enjoying painting on this 6"x12" format. I gave this one to the model since, well... she asked nicely!

    I think the format can create some interesting negative spaces and you really kept this simple and with the focus on the model, very nice indeed.

    Ciao Nora, mi piace molto l'essenzialità dello sfondo che dà più risalto al viso... e mi piace molto l'espressione del viso che dà spazio a svariate interpretazioni...
    Ciao, abbracci, Floriana
