LOL...thanks so much! I'll tell him, he's 11 now!! and would probably prefer a game of two hand touch in that same sand now. I do love this dear painting, of course, I'm partial, since it's of my son when he was a baby. Look at how it looked before, when I went to the conference and see if you can find the changes I made..some of them are obvious. It hung on my wall for a while before I got the courage up to take it out of the frame and apply the changes that came from my portfolio critique at the conference in washington.
Thanks for being the first to reply!! So glad to meet you and yes, I already have learned a lot!! So many resources and so many countless fabulous artists!! I'm loving it already. I lurked around and read and viewed as much as I could possibly view before being accepted. I couldn't wait to take part...lol...ask Cynthia...
here are the before and afters of it:
