You captured good face of Kabuki  actor, it has sensitive expression as woman by man. I is hard to show expression of face like this white painted face, but eye and mouth shows good  expression of feminine, strong contrast but very gentle together, good

You are getting much better to express in your painting, your color getting together so easy to see your painting also composition is much better every time, you need little more shade and light to creates form and depth, continue.

I am sorry that I touch so much of your painting, but sometimes it's hard to tell by words what to do, because of painting, so I show you some of way to do it, I hope you input what I did, It is not necessary to paint detail, just way looks like it, so need right touch to show light and shadow.

Your floating flower become abstract painting, but nice one too, lovely color and shows good and gentle movement also liquid aspect, it is like water lily pond or flowers in fire which very abstract too almost contemporary poem.
