Mia

There's no wonder why I enjoy your work and this portrait in particular. Your use of watercolors, as well as negative space are astonishing. Your control is that of mature artist comfortable in their technique. Your layers maintain excellent detail as they reveal items one by one. The young woman seems to wear plant life, like she is emerging from it, and as expected nature gravitates to her.

You've create Mia in a way that she's her own little ecosystem. If you were to start with her eyes and pan out, each layer reveals something spectacular. The detail in her expression is gentle but commanding. Her gaze is comfortable, and I adore the coloring of her lips. Once you spread out to look at the colors you recognize the ladybugs, next her hoop earrings, then the humming bird and lastly the mushrooms.

The dream-like qualities you've put into this portrait makes this all the more a feast for the eyes! Wonderful work!!!
