Face paint on an actress (assuming this is a woman), how assuredly a surface and a facade. The stark white paint makes an elegant contrast to the muslin clothing. Her pale red lips make a tender, underplayed focus point. Her expression is caught in full emotion. Serenely dramatic. Beautifully done.
My only quibble is with her out of focus hand. That and the brightness of it draws the eye away from rest of the image. If I may be so bold, perhaps a crop from the lower left to tighten it up. Just a suggestion.
Had there been such a crop this would have been a co-favorite in the challenge. |
