Killer texture and contrast, in all of your works. Love this Lady Day...

Sensual and elegant. It's a warm atmosphere due to well-balanced graytones (in my humble opinion). Amazing work!!

Thank you! You're too kind. Looking at it again now, this picture is actually too dark so it should be even better on the grays when I get it professionally photographed.
