Mike, Chris and Michelle,
Thank you so much for these kind remarks. This is my little sister and it was so wonderful to finally get the chance to paint her. Mike, this actually started out as a live portrait but I had to finish up with photographs.
Michelle, I had so much fun with this pink fabric (yes, that's all it is - taffeta, maybe?) that I think I'm going to work it into my next few paintings.
By the way, I shot this photo with my digital camera under a skylight - my new favorite method of shooting a painting.
