I think I'm done on the painting of Robin V. I'll look at it a while and see if it passes muster. Thank you all for your feedback...love to hear your thoughts. Detail of hands shown along with full art. 24x30
Wow Martin-absolutely fantastic! You've taken some of the more difficult aspects of drawing/painting-(foreshortening of a figure, the head at an extreme angle and rendering hands) and combined them all masterfully in one painting.
Thank you Steve and Karen...I value both of your opinions. Karen, your description, "soft energy" may lead me to a title. I've often used "quiet power" to describe dancers.

This is a winner! Beautifully done hands...there is a soft energy here that is just wonderful!

Beautiful and peaceful! I love the focus on the hands and the ethereal quality you captured with the fabric of her dress.
What a fantastic pose. Congratulations on an extraordinary painting.
