That soft but wonderful background has great brushwork and variety in it. Just enough to let #3 shine:) The light and shadow on her is gorgeous. The brushwork that sculpts her is stunning- those arms!! Love this one!Kathy Cousarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00953673216135274293noreply@blogger.com
