Oil on board 6X8 I like the expression here and had to paint it The colors are Venetian Red, Ultramarine Blue and Titanium White. How does it look?

Bill the expression is excellent, but i am not sure about the colors- too dark for me.

I'm mesmorized - I love it! I would have never guessed that you used only three colors. What I always love about your paintings is your choice of hues and your brush strokes and how you combine them to create such beautiful works. I keep scrolling up to view this and I'm amazed at how you painted the expression. I'm so envious! You're very skilled and your perseverence shows.

Bill, Truly amazing! You come up with such wonderful ideas. I have Venetian Red. I think I used it twice. Missed you on the forums lately. Thank you for sharing your genius with us.

Thanks for missing me, Kassie.
My other passion, golf, gets more attention as the days dwindle down to a precious few.
Painting weather will be upon us soon, I think, and I'll be around more.

Bill this is just amazing! What I love most about the piece is the mood you've created. I also really like that you didn't skimp by using only three colors. This portrait isn't lacking in color in any way. Very nicely executed!
