Thanks to some brilliant suggestions from my friends at Wet Canvas, I went back into this and tweaked some areas. The face was not showing enough contrast to differentiate it from the background and the rocks were lacking a little definition. See what you think.

Kara at Bodega Bay
This is my latest portrait. It's going to be a wedding gift for a couple that lives in New York state. Kara and I worked together for about a year and I just love her. I know she is going to be half of a very happy marriage and this portrait seems to have her looking off into the future and as a friend put it "looking very contented".

Sketches
I thought I would share some of my sketches from a portrait drawing class I took a while back at ABTech. I'm going to be starting another class next week on painting. I hope I get better! I'm at a mental road block right now with colors so I'm hoping to get some inspiration and direction.
