gorgeous

I like this. well done Marjorie. We don't get many good figure work on this site but you caught yourself well. The bank statement may have been a disaster but the painting wasn't.

Very expressive. You're concentrating hard and the painting sums up that bank statement moment perfectly!

Thanks William, Stuart and Louise, maybe a new direction is beckoning.

Pastel tones work well...also real tension in the pose...good study.

Brilliant Marjorie top drawer

Another beauty Marjorie a great portrait in every aspect

A great expression well captured, superb.

Lovely work Marjorie really like it its a quality painting well done

Really nice work Marjorie, lovely soft tones and real life to the pose the shadows on the clothing giving real form and structure to the body, beautifully done. Oh by the way, don't worry it may not be as bad as it seems :)))))

The look you've captured says it all Marjorie! Love the muted palette and the story behind this excellent self portrait.

Beautiful painting and a lovely palette

You've certainly that moment well Marjorie!

Like this study Marjorie and the expression captured on reading your bank statement first class, a really nice piece..

Excellent use of tones and hues, Marjorie. Super work.

Excellent and it has your signature style and palette.

Thanks very much to all of you.

This is very good , the pose is perfect as one can feel the tension , it's a very well composed painting
