Loved this painting....full of feeling, and I wonder what she is thinking about. I believe that if a painting makes you ask a question it is a sucess. Light is nice too.

I like this a lot. theres a sort of unfocused feel in the surrounding areas giving movement, while retaining the focus on the main character. actually, i though she was reading a book, but it really doesn't matter. You've frozen her in time and its nicely done. as mentioned by Lynne, the lighting is good too.

Tried to capture a happy vibey morning at the Old Biscuit Mill in Cape Town. I was drawn to the beautiful girl who seemed to be in another world - amazing how many scenes these days have people on cellphones!
