  2. Great job on her facial contours, Sheila! I like how her hair melts into the background, setting the face off.

  4. Beautiful! The only suggestion I would make is to be a little bolder in your shading on the face. Your matching of the red orange is so nice. You did a really good job of replicating an oil painting in watercolor-not an easy task!
