Looking at Art: Portraits- Notice the eyes. There are highlights, almost like white commas in each eye in approximately the same place. Also notice if the artist captured the subtle light reflected in the vitreous of the eye. One side of the face may be shaded and show less light here. This more subtle light, beyond the bright highlights, allows the viewer to connect with the soul inside the model and the artist.  detail and painting of ‘Are We the Canary?’.
