Why'd you have to make it so bumpy?

I know who she is! Great eyes.

Thank you, Gudrun.

Very well painted, Cesare - great skin tones...

Yes the eyes are fantastic great likeness Cesare.

I do like this -the blues are used very well

Very good likeness and very good colour-work Cesare.

You're good at portraits and the skilled techniques in creating them, but this likeness fails in my eyes. The Queen's face should be much wider than long. Sorry Cesare but that's how I see it, everything else is nailed.

Thank you Jan, Carole, David, Michael, and Derek for your kind comments. Hi Derek, we Italians say: "Not all doughnuts turn out as they should" (Non tutte le ciambelle riescono col buco). Any criticism is welcome and useful for improving ourself.

Loads of character in this piece, Cesare. Superb!
