Thanks Molly, Isabel and Virginia,
I scarf up the posititive feedback as I get blind to my own work and never know if it is good or not. I really struggled over the eye makeup thing, but in the end decided it was part of who she is at this age and really told a truer story of her fifteen year old self.
My studio is in my new townhouse. It is glorious. I just love being there. It is the third "bedroom" but since it was new construction I had vinyl flooring installed instead of carpeting and in the closet a utility sink was installed, so I have a place to wash brushes, etc. There are two north facing windows which run from 2ft from floor to about six feet and one west facting window (which I have hung blackout shades for the afternoon sun). The room is about 12 x 16 but it is amazing how quickly I have filled it up!! Still hard to get a set up for photography but works well for life drawing. The ceilings are vaulted - I love how open it feels. My fiance says we will probably stay a couple years but he doesn't know I may never want to leave this space
