Stranger in a Cafe (revised) by Carole Kelly

Beautiful portrait Carole. You have given her a warm and sunny disposition with your carefully crafted technique.

Just beautiful!

That change to the nearer eye has transformed this; now it's just a lovely pic, dear Carole! much love and God bless, 🙂❤️🙏🌊

Good work with the tweaking - not easy! Looks great.

You have made this look so good with the little changes , it’s lovely Carole.

Thank you so much Fiona, Rachel, Andrew, Sarah and Paul. I was encouraging by you all to have another go but was afraid of this unfamiliar medium. I didn’t need to worry, as with a cotton bud and a tiny amount of turps her old eye was replaced in a very short time. Beginning to see a lot of potential for using this medium as there is no fuss to clear up and it’s much safer than soft pastels (not good for my bad chest), although I adore using them. You are all so motivational for which I am most grateful.

Oh yes! Just right! As the song says… what a difference a day makes…

Looks good, Carole!!!

Well done Carole. Not easy to rectify things we’ve done but you’ve managed it.

A lovely sun-glowed young woman. I must have missed the previous post...I'll look it up.

So well done, Carole!

Perfect, just beautiful
