Thank you very much for your comment. It is very satisfying to prepare the ground on the head and then using the darkest and lightest accents to indicate the features.Β

Marvellous!! I would like you to paint alla prima on oil primed panel rather than gesso primed paper and tell me how you like it because I can't afford it.πŸ˜„

Thank you Arnab. I heard good things about "The Artist's Panel", a bit pricy for the sizes however it comes cradled, a good investment.Β 
I use inexpensive linen for demos, it comes in blocks so I'm not sure what exactly is the priming (I apply to gesso layers anyway). For my personal work I use Cleassens fine grain, finally found a store in my country which takes custom made orders. I'll let you know after some more work on it. )
You can also try acrylic medium to prime paper for oil, stellar adhesive.

Great work once again. The expression is so complex. Love the disarray of her hair.
