I know you have worked on stuff like this before. This is pretty good. It gives a sense of who she might be. It causes me to look at things that could be associated with her and her thoughts.
With it all, I find that I am wanting to have something more in this portrait. Perhaps some sense of her being there - a shadow that I could identify as her or something. Perhaps a hand or shoulder or something. I think that would strengthen this even more. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. -- Best regards, Bruce Wednesday, July 5, 2006, 10:13:02 AM, you wrote: SB> Over the past few years, ever since seeing Elliott Erwitt's famous portrait SB> of the cellist, Cassals, I've been making portraits of people by showing SB> something of their environment, trying to capture a bit of who they are, SB> their interests, personalities, without including the person in the shot.
