Hi Linda. Eye-stopping is right! It seems as though she wants to bounce right off my monitor and into my studio. And she looks like she would have something interesting to say, too. Great work. Janet

Linda, I think this is a beautiful painting. I agree about the lips. I wish I had a mouth like that. Your model sure has a spunky attitude in this one. It's so nice to see an expression on a face in a painting. I think so often as portrait artists we neglect expression.

By the way, do you always work on the real gesso linen? What are your thoughts about it? I like the panels but haven't tried the linen.

Hi Linda,

What a wonderful portrait! The personality of this young woman really makes an impression. I love the gaminish ears, the sparkly eyes and the curvy eyebrows and lip corners. She doesn't look like she's going to sit in that 2-D rectangle for long! I admire your colorful, lively application of paint. Terrific!

Alex
