Three Chins
 

I thought I should post this since some of you were nice enough to make comments earlier - I really appreciated them!

This is Kelly with her three Japanese Chin dogs. This one was about color!

My usual disclaimer, I hope the images are OK, please let me know if I need to upload new ones!

What a beautiful painting Beth.
Congrats.

Beth,
it's a wonderful portrait. I enjoy the composition and the subtle colors, and overall the happiness of her face. It makes me simply smiling...

Grate job beth I'm sure the client will be quite pleased.

Sincerely yours,
mischa

Beth,

This turned out great! I love what you did with the color--as always. You really caught a sparkle in Kelly's expression that, along with the dogs clustering around her, gives the feeling of life. There's so much humor and joy in this portrait, and a serenity that crept in towards the end when you brought everything together by unifying the color scheme.

Thanks so much guys, it was a challenging composition but certainly a fun one! You should see her make clothes for these little guys! ;)

Truly lovely work, Elizabeth, but oh my, those sun-glasses are bound to haunt future generations! ;)

Best regards,
Dave

Everthing about this painting is fresh and alive, Beth, big congratulations to you! I like this composition very much. I think my favorite touch is the askew sunglasses, which make sense if you are holding three dogs.

Fresh and lively Beth!
I especially like the genuine warmth you captured in her expression. Real charm!

If this was about color, you succeeded beautifully. The color transitions are wonderful. You also have some great strong brush strokes as well.I particularly like the wonderful glow the facial skin has. The highlights are perfect. Your client must be over the moon with this painting.
