I love this portrait. It is loose and fresh, like I would like to do it now when I have a loose style. Nice painting
Loose and airy, yet so real.
I so admire how you get everything said with such economy of strokes. So beautifully expressive.
Un très joli portrait. Il a une âme...
Gros bisous
What a lovely old face with all the living behind the lines. Great painting Karin.
i so love these portraits... so much expression with so few brush strokes. Your work is amazing and inspiring. Thank you for sharing. xoxo
Warm up???!! It would take me 3 weeks to do that...if then! Very nice painting.
It's so beautiful against the background color! You make it look effortless but I imagine what it takes to have that effortlessness!
