[Chris Saper]

Dear Renee,

Your portrait has a strong and effective composition, and I think you have been very successful in creating the sense of sunlight tumbling across your subject. The simple but well-committed value plan makes your painting read well from a distance..sometimes this is very difficult to do when a piece's transitons are subtle.

It's exciting to see how much growth this portrait shows, even from your prior post.

Kindest regards, Chris

P.S. Thanks for the kind words.
