Portrait of a one year old child

Hello everyone,

I'm working on a commission at the moment. The portrait is not finished yet, the first layer of oil-paint has dried and I was able to scan the painting. It's a very small painting (10 x 15 cm. = 4.16 x 6.25 inch.)

The child is one year old. The mother requested a white or nearly white background, so the painting could match with a photograph of the father of the child when he was one year old. It's a present for the father, he will receive it in September. As I said, the painting isn't finished yet. I have to paint more details in the green piece of clothing, add some lighter accents in the hairs, and adjust the eyes a little bit. Any comments are welcome, I will paint further on this painting in a few weeks. When it's finished I'll post a photograph of the finished painting.

Greetings,
Peter
