This is Anne-Marie. Ray Gerrard posted the original at DPR a couple of months ago.
As always, C&C are welcome.

I like the subtle swirl of the background and the contrast between the color of her skin and the background colors. Painting of soft skin is deftly done. Marty,check the outer edges of her upper left arm and shoulder for evenness and blending of color.
I also like the way you framed her and the white stroke rectangle on the the inner edges of the frame. Nice work!

Patre, thanks for looking, and looking closely :) .
I see what you mean about the the left arm/shoulder problem. Nice catch.
I'll try to find some time to rework that area and will re-post the result.

This is a new version of my original post. Worked out the arm/shoulder issues -- I think.

Yep,you got it,Marty..The edge blends now and the curve of her arm is smooth and symmetric. Nice work!

Thanks, Palms.
I agree -- very pretty girl.
But something about her mien made me pick a BG that suggests of a bit of fire and brimstone.
What do you think?
