This was a difficult portrait to do...
The picture (professional photo) was great but not easy to paint. The problem here was getting the texture and the luminosity of the skin, mixing the colors to get the light without loosing the face...The contrast of the blue eyes made the rest.You can watch this Pastel portrait process video in my YouTube Instructional channel.
