Dear Michele,
Thank you! It is so nice to be complimented by such accomplished artists and to hear that progress in one's work is noticeable.
This last year was the " Monochrome Marathon" for me (they are my cheapest priced category). Doing so many of these paintings has helped me to understand the subtle value changes that occur in the face. I still have to look out for my enemy #1 " Senior Line" , who likes to creep up and hide here and there!
I miss painting in color though! When I did the painting of "Paco" , a little Papillion mix before Christmas, I made a promise to myself that even if I don't get any commissions for colored portraits, to squeeze in a couple of the Orientalist themed paintings again.
