Thomasin,
Watching this progress into its finished state was a privilege--thank you for taking the time to share it. Now, looking at it, I'm remembering all the layers, and scraping off, and trying different things, and these stages seem almost visible in the richness of the surface and in the present form of Puck. I always wonder why artists are afraid to let others see their process. Of course, your process is definitely more interesting than mine!
As always, I love the way you imply movement in the facial expression. I think there is a little bit of magic in your brush! Could you please post a closeup of the face? I want to see the nose especially, but all the features. And another detail of the background brushstrokes?
I agree that your paintings are remarkable, masterful and unique!
