Beautifully painted. Lovely warm colours and the light reflecting on her face is super.

Really well done 👍

Always excellent work Timothy - can I ask where you get your reference material from! I’ve been looking for some decent resource images online, but they are pretty dreadful generally!

She and the portrait are beautiful!

Beautiful woman beautifully painted.

Thanks all. Alan, she is a good friend of mine. She kindly sent a set of photos for me to work from. Yes, references are hard to get. Even harder to get models to sit. I'll take refs from anywhere. I make a lot up too.. Luckily my imagination is still working. Or make little quick sketches while I am out n about. And I'm very cheeky... I ask people if I can paint them. Surprisingly some agree. I also 'borrow scenes from films'. Why not.. If I change them a bit.. It's all ammunition and art is great therapy. Happy painting

Thanks Timothy, interesting regarding the films… it’s another avenue.
