    Lori, this is very beautiful and I love those colors and layering. Somehow it reminds me of Frida Kahlo, don't ask why, I don't know :) Very mysterious and interesting portrait!

    Thank you for joining the challenge!

    She's so soft and vintage looking. I can just see her standing in Vermeer's Studio.
