"Portrait of Cigdem" Work in progress

"Portrait of Cigdem" is advancing nicely. In this stage the figure doesn't look quite pretty yet. But how the painting becomes layers and layers building itself. Worked on the background landscape and softened the skin tones a bit, I add another layer on the hair as well. Adding the transparent layers patiently pays back on the result.  Next step work is the details of landscape and after the shirt, chest, arms...
