Thank you.

Michelle, this will be a gallery painting.
There are no such strong opinions in Australia. If there are, they are few and mostly silent. I guess that is why they call Australia "The Lucky Country."

Thanks Chris. Someone else suggested putting a blanket over the babies diaper & legs. this would not be too difficult, but I am not confident to paint hands that I cannot see. I understand your reasoning about the arm leading the eye though, so this is important to consider.

I will try again.
