Hi Monique,
I have to say that as a first oil portrait, or even your thirtieth oil portrait (which will happen soon), this is exceptional in your mastery of the medium. You have a sensitive and precise eye. The color and value control is exquisite. Your subject is so charming, captivating and palpable with an engaging costume and pose. I love the specific moistness of those lips; everything is crisp and perfect! Very, very well done!
