I really like this one, the warm tones in the face work well with the red background. I hope we get to see the whole set together when completed, it will be amazing.
These are fantastic bold portraits. I am amazed with your skill and the flight of escape to try new color and techniques. I love them all but you the red in your paintings is truly exciting. The use of red around the eyes especially. This is a great series!

This one is really scary looking. Appropriate with halloween coming up.
