Thanks, Jimmie, Julie and Julie! I posted this one right before I saw Vianna Szabo's painting of her daughter and since then I've been so intrigued by her painting, thinking about how mothers paint their daughters and what goes into their choice of pose, expression, etc. This is a very characteristic expression of Becca's. Julie, I am so pleased that you see the sweetness that is such a big part of her personality. I, too, often wonder what she is thinking! And I guess I unintentionally (or subconsciously) put that into the painting.
