Biondina by Stephen Hulse

well done you Stephen, good one

I don't know this painting, I'll have to look it up. But I'm seeing a regal looking young woman, very well painted. She has character.

Just looked up Biondina. Excellent likeness, and what a cracking painting by Leighton. I knew the artist but not this painting. A good job here Stephen.

Thank you Heather and Lewis for your encouraging comments.

Nice work Stephen, the intensity and emotion really come through.

Nicely painted Stephen.

Lovely work Stephen

Lovely texture in the blue bodice. Great likeness and very telling of her character, I love the set of her mouth and the look in her eyes your managed to portray. A reall testament to the first artist Leighton's talent and your own.
