This might have to be my new favorite of yours, right up with Calibration. I love the intensity of the scene, but the less saturated tones. The whole atmosphere of the piece seems to be subdued, like the moment after danger has passed--great job capturing the relief on her face!
Also, your rendering continues to amaze me. Gorgeous. How do you get such clean natural lines?
Beautiful work, Lane!

Thanks! I've been trying to utilize more neutral/gray tones lately. It's amazing what little notes of it can do when surrounded by more saturated areas.
As for clean lines, those are a bit deceptive, as I often require an absurd amount of undo's or paintovers before I get them right. So, I suppose persistence is the answer.

Ahaa...I see that. Brings the focus more to the saturated places and gives you an added sense of depth. I think I need to try this sometime. It really separates foreground from background and enhances the atmosphere in this image.
These paintings you do look deceptively effortless. Persistence helps to explain everything.
Very very lovely.
