Thank you very much for your comments.

Re: Ginette
Very nice painting. I agree with the comment about the nose/eyes. The nose looks like it's pointing to our left and the eyes are aiming to our right. Perhaps it's just the screen image, but check it out. The left sleeve (our right) on the coat appears longer than the other. Although her hand might be hidden under one, they should still be the same length. Everything else looks lovely to me!

Thanks Sweets.
I think the coat is fairly true to the ref photo. Basically I think the coat was too big for her and she had pulled it down on her left side. But either way, this is what attracted me to do the painting. I like the way she is unaware of her appearance and is just absorbed in her own world.
Thanks so much for your feedback.
Regards
Graham
