Hi folks, I must confess, me too)))
You guys are big inspiration for me and so I started this popular bust too. Here are some first touches on the face, but still much to be done on that. I toned it a bit to the violet and hope it will come out interesting. Hope to pass zou more photos of the finished face soon.

Superb painting Robert.

Wonderful skin tones - takes guts to include blues etc
