I haven't been too active here lately, and I wanted to share this simple little profile that I completed earlier this month.

This is super, Lacey!

A little gem. I like your use of color, and the deep tonality.

Hi Lacey, what a lovely portrait.

This is great!

Oh, Lacey, I love this! The colors are exquisite, and you've rounded the form and created space between the head and the background so well. I also adore the expression on his face. I agree with Garth that it is a gem of a painting.

Lacey,

A beautiful rich portrait. His expression is so intense.

Hi Lacey,
it's a beautiful little profile, sometimes simplicity adds force, and you successfully created a strong piece.

Lacie,

Very, very, very nice. I admire your ability to create such a beautiful, intense and simple portrait. A real pleasure to view.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! It is so helpful to get encouragement from such talented people.

This painting is a companion piece to the 8x10 portrait "Melanie" and after comparing them side-by-side, I realized that I do paint differently now than I did then.

Thanks again, this was fun to paint.

Hi Lacey -

Can't add to what the others wrote, just that I really like this too.
