Aaron,

I love the way your painting has just enough color, in the right places, to focus the viewer's attention. You did that so well. Other things I like about it are the skintones (funny how I always forget that burnt sienna makes such great flesh), the way the part of her legs covered by the white tights contrasts with her bare skin, and the very rich darks that are made by various combinations of burnt sienna and ultramarine blue. Thank you for sharing this lovely piece.
