Actually I know this image should ideally be sharper, but somehow the blurriness enhances the portrait by giving it an enigmatic glow and a certain softness. I love it! I agree with Anneke and like the lights you have painted into the skin tones. Brilliant artwork!
Artist Reply: Thank you so very much for the wonderful compliment.
It's a pity that the picture is a bit blurred, I think on the real painting the beautiful eyes will sparkle. I love the light you have painted on the skin and the colours!
Artist Reply: Thank you Anneke. The real one is much sharper.
