I like it VERY much as I do all your work. The skin tones are astonishing and her hair is it's own work of art as is that beaded necklace! What a beautiful model, lucky you, so inspiring.

Such a beautiful painting Michele. Outstanding as always. Did you do it on “Anthracite” as you’ve done in the past?

‘Bea’ all sorts of pastels on 19 x 26” pastelmat. She’s finished! I managed to sneak some extra hours in yesterday away from commissions. Once again she has been an absolute delight to draw - I’ve loved the patience it took to create the detail of not just her skin tones but also her hair braids and necklace. I hope you like it.
