I love this portrait - restrained colours, very painterly, brush strokes so interesting to study - there's such a lot to look at.

Great, free and loose brushwork on the shirt - limited palette gives strong effect of the portrait. Super study

You make it look all too easy and that is the skill, brilliant!
