This artwork seems to be done by using the palette knife along with the strokes of paint brush.The light effect is splendid.The scarlet,the grays and the white are all very pleasing colours.Good job

Just love the deep red, black and white palette. Dramatic and graphic feel with bold presentation! The angle/pose and texture nicely shown. Good illustration technique! jean

Comment from Marilyn J. Brown
You have achieved an interesting textural effect with your pallette knives. The wall behind your subject looks like stucco and the froth of her gown looks just that - frothy! Quite lovely.

Thanks for the thorough artist notes. I really like your hand with the palette knife. very discreet and not heavy. I wish I have a 6 to give you.

Comment from Sessybon
You are such a talented artist. I have reviewed several of your paintings and you convey so much in your art. Here, the girl has a haughty air with her upturned nose and pouting lips. I love the textured finish of her dress which adds detail to the picture. Just lovely.

Comment from Linda Bickston
She is resting, but also contemplating a sorrow. Something that she can't share with anyone. It is deep within her heart. I want to take her in my arms and reassure her of her value and beauty. Wonderful painting. Again.
