Description Thanks goes to for letting me use her stock photo [link]

Meh, I was trying to nail the hair, but I might have missed the mark. I really like how paints, especially hair: [link] I guess I was trying to emulate that in this study. I could have added a little more subtle color variation in the face. I also could have done more with the background, it's kinda just blah. I don't know if I'm improving or what.

You could have......but you didn't and it is amazing just as it is right now. Very beautiful (so as your other work is), I'm merely sitting and staring - thank you for that.

Thank you. Yeah, I always go through the "I could haves" when I finish a painting, haha. Helps me figure out what to do and not do in the next one.

Ha, me too - and I'm grateful for that - seeing mistakes is a precious way of getting better... (at least technically ) I just wanted to point out that for a non-author the piece doesn't lose anything of its quality because of 'could haves'. Don't be afraid to trust yourself more!
