This is stunning. Love the loose brush strokes and letting the underpainting show through giving depth and unity.

Hi Lynne! Painting gain more emotion when we release the gesture, once that the concern shouldn't be about formal rigour because it's impossible exactly to reproduce any reality or model. We just can create another reality as reference —transparency is a way to prevent the hardness in the theme. In the end, without lose my focus on the model, I'm always trying to get the informality... Thank you :-)
