Love the eyes on this one. You really don't make these up as you go along, do you? I don't believe that for a minute! Anyways, gorgeous work. I love the way you're doing the gold in the backgrounds too, how the abstract background contrasts with the realism in the portrait.

Mark I've always enjoyed your portraits but I'm also enjoying the your attention to the jewels on your recent pieces!
