Kim, I really like your portraits, I like how you play with the negative space to create form.
You do a lot of portraits? Seriously, great stuff there.

Kim .... I don't think I can compete with the women commenters here!
Love the "mini portrait" - I do those to, but they are very cartoonish with stick bodies ((smile))
Glad to see I made the May commenters list. Ecard has been quite far from my mind as of late. Most days I do not even sign in. Busy busy in Hollydale,
SpeedyCat :-)

HI Kim, Oh wow, these are beautiful, just love the them...so stylish and strong...I cant wait to see the next three. Congrats on being featured. This is a great contest....xoxo Owing a Kim Barker original is out of this world .... :)
Kim, your portraits are wonderful. I like the one with her glasses on, the best, as it conveys a certain spontaneity and naturalness (is that a word?).
