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

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. Kathy |

Thanks everyone for looking and commenting. >>Missed you on the forums lately. 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! |
