Femme de feu VI final... An acquired taste!

A few more passes and I managed to pull this one off... sort of...


At the initial stage, I realized that smaller eyes led to an older woman by at least 10 years. I decided to roll with the punch and pursue in that vein. The feline look leads me to entitle this one "Jaguar"... in praise of  older "predator" women preying on younger men! I don't mind having a few paintings in this series that provoke some uneasiness on the part of the observer. This one is a 30 X 30 canvas... and, at that size, she can eat you alive! ;-)

Update: I decided to crop this painting to emphasize the eyes and facial features...
