Matt, This is a lovely portrait, wonderful lighting accentuating the texture on the wall behind and in the armchair too. I also like the angular shadow on the side of the armchai. The absence of colour just works and the conversion is very well done. Phil looks relaxed and happy to pose for you.

brillant Matt, the only thing I can see is that I would like to see the legs less prominent within the frame, they detract slightly from the face, possible some local darkening on them or one corner vignette.
Top conversion to BW and superb lighting.

Outstanding and love how all the lines converge nicely to her. The b&w conversion is brilliant as well.

What's this look like printed?

A wonderful Rodin(esque) portrait of great depth.
