I'm always so amazed when painters can really capture something about a person that makes me feel like I know the person, like is shown here

I can't explain what element it is that makes that happen, but I know it when I see it
- ha nice! Familiarity brings out warmth, I think.
So nice to see people posting real art!
- yeah, in a sea of AI garbage, I like to see people do something just for the pleasure of doing it. that's why I participate.
Very nice work!
The brush work is fantastic!
- that's a high praise, lol. I'm getting there though
  
  I aspire to be as good as you. I'll get there eventually!
Subject in this art looks cute af
- I strayed away from the reference image a little bit, I wanted a bit of typical Eastern look.
