Jimmie this is fabulous. I think it shouldn't be long before you are doing this FT. I really like the light blue/ochre background mixture and I wonder if it would help to go a bit farther with the blue to cool more of the background. One area that I would be tempted to change is the stripe of ochre - I like the stripe concept but the hair under the chin is so close in value and color to it that when I squint my eyes it (the hair) becomes lost - I guess I just want to see better the marvellous treatment of that hair.

I LOVE your sensitive and deft modelling of the face. Excellent!!
