Julie, you rock! Your development continues to astound me. A pro job that any portrait artist would be proud to include in their portfolio.

Thanks so much, Marvin! Your encouragement and the encouragement of the other artists on this forum means so much. As you may have noticed, the color palette for the skin tones of this painting is based on your system.

Well Done
 

What a great job Julie. Wow haven't you progressed over the last year.

You should be very proud of this achievement. Well Done!

Thanks, Ngaire!

Julie, after looking at this painting and also those on your website, I am blown away with the edge treatments that you use in your paintings. Your technique gives a 'real' look to the person that you are painting. Nice depth in your paintings as well. Congratulations.

Thanks, Celeste!

Well done, Julie! A great accomplishment, and perfect capture. Congratulations!
