[Christy Talbott]

I decided to draw someone who will actually sit for me-- even though she's not a child. Here's a self portrait done looking in a mirror. I did get a commission to do a portrait of a 22 yr old woman from life; I start on Monday. Of course this should be much easier than trying to paint a little child, still I'm a little anxious because I don't have a lot of working from life experience.
