Paint them when they're young

Hi April,

What cute children, I too like #1 and #3. You're smart to go ahead and paint them while they're young.

I have a 15 year old who is very patient with my taking photos of her, but after about 80 photos (!), then I offer to pay her. Lucky candy still works for you!

Linda, this interests me very much. I am about to embark on a portrait of my daughter and I'm wondering . . . . how much space is too much space? I'll start a new thread for this question.
