Wow! Terrific job! This would be a hard portrait to paint in any medium but I am particularly impressed that you captured this kind of detail and mood with Watercolor. The backlighting and shadows are so great. Wonderful control!
Very dramatic! I'm not sure what the original photo looked like, but you have captured a wonderful mood and the backlighting really enhances the overall painting.
What a gorgeous portrait! Your skill with watercolors and portraits is just amazing. I really want to be like you when I grow up! I love portraits and I love watercolors; the combination of the two is the hard part for me!
The mood in this portrait is tremendous. Love it. Love the skillful watercolor technique, too -- being a watercolor pretender myself, I understand the difficulty of the medium all too well. You're a master.

I agree with all the above - such a dramatic piece with the backlighting. Great job.
Really nice, Theresa! I like the way you handled the eyes, the one in shadow being darker, and like all the others, I love your backlighting!
