Great colour palette and a well balanced composition. Intriguing is probably an overused descriptor for your works, however, it is an operative one once again. And I don't mean it to sound trite.
Little undecided on the mottled appearance of her skin. Simply nit picking on my part, rest assured.
That one eye is intense, and I found my own eyes entranced with that facet/element. All complimented wonderfully by the rest of your piece.
But of course, take a bow on this one. I miss your work and hope that my words here find you well. Thanks for sharing this one with us. :o)
