    Default Need Your Opinion...portrait

    Need your opinions, ladies.... The client who commissioned this wanted the fingertip portrait...I felt she wanted the dress rather than the person...so I did a close-up, too. Which do you prefer? Go to the gallary and take a peek.

    Portrait #4 : fingertip

    Portrait #5 : close-up

    Graci, I prefer the closeup, the face is softer, however, the full length has more detail in the dress and jewellery. Both of them are fine but I would say I like the closeup more.

    Well done!

    I agree with Rhonda. Both wonderful work, but I like the closeup better.

    Another vote for the close-up, but they're both excellent.

    Thank you! I told her I was going to do a different view and let her pick the one she wants... I think she'll agree with you all!

    Thanks for the critique, as well...I went back in and enhanced the pic after reading your comments. BTW...Anytime anyone has a suggestion concerning the drawings I do, please feel free to comment. You will not hurt my feelings as I value all your opinions!

    Except for Karen...she tells me she can get a better pic at "Chuck-e- Cheese's"...ROFLMBO
