This adorable little girl was wonderful to paint. She's so delicate.. i thought it best to keep the washes light.. and the feeling simple.The commission is for a local client.

This is truly lovely. Such a cute face to paint. I wish I could do portraits so I could paint my grandchildren at this age.
Nice work.

i hope you paint your grandchildren.. regardless of you level of skill. it would be a tribute to your love for them.. and i'm sure that would shine through more than anything.
