My aim was to build an interesting and rich skin tone and a convincing NMM effect.
Hope you like her.
I did take lots of pictures to encourage other painters to follwo a similar approach.

I really love your interpretation of the bust. The roughness of the metals contrasts well with her softer face. With the shadow on her face, she looks very prestige and commanding. And I really enjoy how her eyes are piercing and very vivid. I enjoy this piece very much! :)

Thank you Stepán!! I did try to work in this contrast and forced myself to build a smooth skin against a more rough metallic interpretation. I really appreciate your words.

I can only repeat what Štěpán said. I agree totally. Lovely paintwork! Love your brushstrokes! Powerful, directly speaking to my soul. I do not vote Gold often, but your interpretation of this beautiful bust is a true Gold and Editor’s choice from my side!
