I really did not make major changes to his hands. I felt in the long run, they were best left alone.

Lovely painting Beth. Interesting brush work and a nice job on those hands.

Thank you Mike, I wish the photos did it justice. Hopefully the slides will produce truer images.

Very nice portrait Elizabeth. And good call on the hands, I think they look pretty good as is.

Very nice work. I'm sure it was well received.

I think this is your most cohesive painting so far. When I first met you and saw some of your originals I was surprised at how much better they were than the posts I had seen. I hope that I have the pleasure of seeing this one someday, in the real.

Just remember that getting there is all the fun.

Elizabeth, this is a wonderful portrait. Very polished. I predict a bishop next!!

Beth,

You've got this one pulled together very nicely. I'm sure he's going to like it, way to go.

I'd also wager after November, when you get your new camera, we'll be treated to even truer, better images of your work. You will likely be getting the commissions you hoped from this piece.
