  1. I like Hals a lot. The facial expressions really make the art for me. I have a feeling that I would like Hassam a lot more than I do now if I saw the art in person, but for now I will have to cast my vote for Hals.

  2. Voting for Hals and genderfluid portraiture. Though I do like the messy room with the yellow irises.
