Thank you Linda! I pulled the color scheme from the outfit that Lillian was wearing. The pattern you see in the background happens to be that of a wall paper I had seen at the Miette candy store in San Fransisco.
This portrait goes to a young family of six in Alaska. Because of all the young children in the household, I wanted to pick a theme for the portrait that would put Lillian in an environment that is playful and fun. I played on Lillian's sweetness as she sneaks a candy.
The challenge was to make sure that the wall paper does not compete with the subject and I hope that I succeeded.
