I love the way you handle paint, Christy - so expressive and sensual. The forms look accurately placed, which suggests to me that the big shapes are right and you needed more time to be specific.

Cut yourself some slack and just do this without the pressure of commissions for a while.

I really would love to see you keep this up. I sure wish I were a big name painter to give you a Big Name Stamp of Approval or something. :) :thumbsup:

Thank you Linda, you are very kind and encouraging :) I feel as though I just got that stamp of approval. I'll do my best to keep up with this!

My left hand drawn quickly as the sun set. Also a self portrait, couldn't sleep... This isn't quite me, she looks a little younger.

I love these! Keep going!
