Kim, this is fabulous! Whatever powerful forces have been stirring in your work, when you apply them to portraiture--LOOK OUT, HERE SHE COMES! I love how everything works together visually: the subtle pattern of the wall next to the dress and necklace, The "pointed" statement of her hair next to the incredible sensitivity of her face and expression. Each thing in the painting simultaneously contrasts and harmonizes in different ways (color, texture, value, emotional impact) and on different levels. I'd love to see this in person.
