Vexed

I felt there was a slightly worried look in the model's face that I didn't want to change too much. Reference is from DeviantRoze on deviantART. This is 5 x 7 inches, oil on panel.

This piece has such a classic feel to it. While I love the contemporary feel of your work, this one really stands apart. SO striking! And her expression is wonderful. I expect to see her breathing soon. :)

Thanks Crystal! I feel like I held myself back from using my usual affectations like bright nose and eye highlights.
