I am so sorry for not seeing and commenting on this earlier. I like it very much. It is full of personality - yours and the subject's, and it is an expressive and moving portrait. I really like the use of lines, and the exploration of the shapes of things - i.e the exploration of two-dimensional shapes as they honestly come across on a flat surface. I also really enjoy the blue you created for the jacket and the background, and also the merging of the two so that it becomes a harmony, a colour composition as well as a portrait. It's a strong and appealing painting, Enzie.
