  1. G is very pretty and your talent is really exceptional, Elena… admiration and respect, good luck and tons of inspiration… my very best and friendly thoughts, Mélanie – Toulouse, FRANCE, “old Europe”… 🙂

  2. Elena, your color palette is so glorious. I love her hair and the color of her blouse against her soft skin tones. The texturing around her face is the perfect compliment . Beautiful!

  3. Wow. Such a great portrait Elena..she knows her own mind, I think, a very strong character comes out here, with a hint of that hestitation we all feel! The light is captured so beautifully.

  4. Such a beautiful portrait Elena .. her arresting gaze just reaches out of that dreamy atmospheric light you’ve painted ….

  5. Wow. I just watched the movie “Picnic at Hanging Rock”, this reminds me of the character Miranda and the line from the script, “I know now that Miranda is a Botticelli angel.” Your portrait evokes that same wonder.

    1. Thanks so much, Scilla not only for the lovely comment but for introducing me to “Picnic at Hanging Rock”! I Googled images and found the character. And yes, she does resemble G. I think both G and I will have to see the film!
