Hi Mariano.
In my opinion this is the best Portrait you have done so far. I can see you in this. If I have a point to make it is the mouth, Your mouth isn`t like that. You are better looking than this. But I have`to say that it is an excellent portrait. Well done my friend.
Vic.

This portrait of yours is just gorgeous..you have really come a long way, as far as portrairs are concerned.The skin tones are just perfect and the deatailing is very good! Congrats!

Hi Arti,
thanks a lot for your nice comment. Glad you like it, I used Sharon Sprung palette for the skin tones, and try to be as accurate as possible. Happy painting Arti

Hi Joan,
what a great compliment you gave me, thank you very much Joan. Hope to improve but this is where I am at. The color palette i use was from Sharon Sprung, the mistakes mine!
