Laszlo's work is excellent. Hard to compare with Sargent as I find Laszlo slightly stylized, and divergent from Sargent's realism. Can't argue about preference here, tastes differ, and I totally respect that opinion. The study turned out wonderfully, mad props!

Thanks OlTrout! Yeah I think you're right, it could be that slightly stylised look that appeals to me. I still think Sargent is amazing too.

Just out of curiosity, what's your current palette? I've been using the same old primaries plus titanium white and burnt umber, except when I tried out the Zorn palette a few times. Zorn was definitely fun to work with.

Mischa-head responds:

Ah nice, I really like the Zorn palette too. At the moment I'm using Naples yellow, Indian red, Pale rose blush, Titanium white, Lamp black, Burnt sienna and sometimes Pthalo blue. It's an interesting palette, quite low chroma which gives an interesting effect. I've also switched to using charcoal pencils for my underdrawings so I think a good amount of charcoal is getting mixed in with the paint which kind of greys it down.

I'd be keen to hear if you've got any other palette recommendations.

This really reminds me of the type of candid photography that I love. And the painting itself is incredible. Love your work!

Mischa-head responds:

Thanks so much!

This is absolutely beautiful. Love that your blacks are so cool. Love that your brushwork is so deliberate. Nothing feels overworked or overblended or muddy.

Mischa-head responds:

Thanks so much!

Wow, can't believe it's been over a year since your last upload. Fantastic work, as usual. Don't make us wait that long next time!

Thanks dude I'm glad you like it

You could say I'm "blossoming" in a way...

To me,the head looks like a really good size for this particular style. You seem to have a good grasp on body proportions, whether you know it or not. Love the piece. Can't wait to see more from you.
