Thanks for the comments Michele. I think if there is something about this piece that bothers me it is that cool area around the mouth. It was a part of the photo that didn't seem to make sense to me. Now that it has been called to my attention, it REALLY bothers me. One thing I usually have trouble with is deviating from the photo reference.

Do you think that the detail in the hair is distracting? I usually don't get that detailed with hair but I let myself this time because it was such a dominant part of the portrait. Maybe I shouldn't have. Karen
