Yes I do think this painting is finished, although, for me it is never clear when a painting is finished…sometimes I stopped because I feel it is going nowhere and I cannot improve it, other times, I feel it is good, I like it and I don’t want to spoil it by trying to reach something better, of course there is a shade of grays area when it come to decide if it is finished….

But this one yes is done…so the poor model won’t have to stand in the doorway, she can relax…as for the painting, it will rejoin many others in a corner of my workshop…
