    This is David, Sujit. If you know a good team of lawyers, get them on a trans- Pacific jet ASAP. Everyday, I sell truck loads of head studies so money is no object!

    What is really eerie is that the decapitated head has his eyes opening...much as if he is just daring you!

    Ok I'm weighing in again. Your painting has more life anyway you look at it. So seeing the reference photo only emphasized that. The shadows... well this amateur is totally confused. The sun on these clothes makes a dark shadow. So guess what, number 1 without the lift was just fine. No. 2 tweek, well it really didn't hurt it, but the first was just fine. You'll have to teach your students, meaning me, a bit more about light and shadows.

    Autumn, I think this cast is a copy of Michaelangelo's David.
