Chris, thanks so much for posting the WIPs. I love seeing how you built up the colors, but I found the brushstrokes especially interesting. The way you brush out into the edges of her face is something I've never seen before. Is it something you developed yourself, or did you learn it? I can see how it affects the edge. Also the forehead: many artists brush horizontally along the forehead, but your brushstrokes are vertical. Also, your diagonal strokes seem so orderly and purposeful, as all strokes should be, even when you are just beginning a painting. I like having this glimpse into how you work, since my trips to Phoenix are few and far between.
