Description
Acrylics on Canvas Board 30x40cm
After a long time I found again joy to work on a portrait!
Completely handfree. No grids, no overlay, no close comparisons, as I need to train this next level.
Thank you, WolfkillX , for the feedback on the way
And thank you DanielaIvanova for smiling so nicely back at me!

Yup, I'm really behind on deviations (we tend to leave some stuff for each other, but don't communicate it to each other 
I love the eyes especially, they sparkle so lively!
I've tried drawing some times and I found the hair a tough part, but this looks so silky smooth 
I love how you made the background radiate too

You are doing so much together, there is only so much one(two) can do, isn't it?
Glad you like it!
With this piece I learned something which comes back again and again. It is like every artwork, after a certain critical point, comes to life on its own... If up to that point you kind of work hard to follow a reference, after that it pulls you in other directions...
I promised Daniela I will work on it, and because my intention was to alter it, I never came about to do it. I would probably need to make a new one to make the likeliness better

I really like the expression here
I think you also did a good job on the "flow of the hair" - and the background adds very well to this picture!

Yup, anybody who does cool stuff fro Dani is cool with me. Daniela has done a ton for me and I consider her one of my closest friends on DA so I was really happy to see how thrilled she was with your portrait. Nice to "meet" you btw.

Once again want to thank you for this gorgeous portrait and express my amazement at how well you captured the likeness but also how you added to it something from yourself - the hair and the flowers and the overall sea feel are just incredible.

And thank you for allowing me to paint you - I really appreciate it!

I agree! I'm super glad we chatted, it was about time, too
And please, I should thank you for the gorgeous creation. But I'm glad it gave you something to distract you from the moving

We are still in preparation phase, and I have to say that I got in a kind of fever - you know, like when you are in the examinations weeks, and instead of studying, you suddenly find the most interesting guy, the most interesting book, something else super exciting that you need to learn NOW!

I have orchids on the table where I paint, so I could not resist drawing them - they simply seemed to fit the air she had about her!
