  1. I'm curious if you have a favorite color and if it differs from your fav color to create art?

  2. Vivid. I felt as if I was being confronted by a real human being at a pivotal moment.

  3. Yes, the gaze is very direct. Compelling is a good word.

  4. Margaret, agreed. K, interesting. I don't disagree. And Jean, here we are, potentially, at the gender issue again. Hmmm.

  5. Thanks, all.

    Cafe, I do have a favorite color. I love blue, sky, ocean. My favorite colors to create art vary with subject and medium, but I still love blue.

    I am glad you feel like this is real.

    Banjo, gender issue?

  7. Thanks, Chieftess.

    Learning to deal with bad lighting conditions has been part of my life drawing experience for the last couple of years.
