Portrait of Laura S



This is nearly complete. May work a little more on background and the lower portion. I've been told not to do portraits with teeth showing, unless I have mastered them. Teeth are extremely difficult, so I need practice. I found the work of Scott Bartner, portrait artist from the Netherlands, truly inspiring. He has definitately mastered the art of painting teeth!

The reference photo was unfortunately taken with flash, but, I tried to reduce some of the blowout affects to get a more natural look.
