Unbelieveable! I love that her head is on the flowery cushion. And how the edge of the cushion lines up with the line on her wrist…nice subtle framing.
Good things take time, I bet you don’t regret spending so long!

You have a good eye for detail. Great painting.
Adam Stone
I don’t usually swear but this is bloody amazing. Your gallary is simply incredible, but this is definitely my favourite. The textures of her skin, the look of her expression, the flow of her hair, the weight of her necklace and the power of her lips… Its all perfectly done. Exceptional work.

Adam bloody well says it all aprt from being very restrained in his cursing.
