Stunning portrait. Fail to see how it qualifies for the "Seeing Green" contest.
Great expression in the face. Colors and composition are excellent

Yeah, it's really good. I like all the detail that I can see in it. Her face looks so real. Her eyes shine so bright and they go very well with her blouse. The shading on the right side of her face is excellent. I say, because I've seen many pictures where the darker area is not shaded in that well. Very good.

I think the overall feel of this painting is warmth. warmth of her smile and in her eyes... youve captured this brilliantly... however i think the skin needs a tad more detail... but thats objective and obveously not what you intended to portray else you would have. i like it.

The sensative and charming personality shines through in this portrait. The color, shape and forms are excellent. The highlights and shading, masterful.

Great colours and shading on this, I do not know if the model has a lazy eye, But the one on the right looks different.
