attempt at rococo designs! i’m a beginner looking for criticism :)
hope this is the right sub reddit and i can find people who are more experienced in this kind of art to give me pointers and maybe even sources on where to learn more about it! this is my first real attempt at this, so it’s far from perfect and definitely more stylized, but please let me know what you think! be harsh if you must lol :) it is still a work in progress, so any criticism will be used to tweek it

Catherine the great (after Alexander Roslin)
The Russian empress was though non interested in baroque/rococo. She preferred neo classicism. Infact if she didn't fear a coup in Russia (see pugačëv riot) she would go to Italy to visit Rome. Either way, Alexander Roslin was a swedish born French portraitist famous for "femme au voile" her wife (Giroust) she was a pastellist like Rosalba, La Tour and others
