Another week has passed and I worked more on my latest painting. As you can see, I concentrated my focus mainly on the nose: now she actually has some nostrils, but all in all, the nose is still too long for my taste:( But I didn´t paint it over at once, ´cause I think itContinue reading “In the Mood for… Vermeer – Girl with a Pearl Earring – Part III”

Where are you?
