What a pleasant surprise Laurent, very nice so far, you are a fine painter.
I was sure that I was going to be the first for posting that bust painted, but you are very fast, you couldn't resist to apply color on that beauty you create.
Well done.
Looking good Laurent. Your time off from painting doesn't show at all. My tiny little pick would be the shadows in the corners of the eyes (the deep purple on the inside/next to the nose of each eye). They look a tad harsh to me and could use a little blending out. If you're not done yet, ignore my comments.
