Hi Robert,
Welcome to the forum. Lovely watercolor you have chosen as your introduction piece and interesting cropping. There are a few watercolor artists here and you will find this is a great place to seek help, encouragement, constructive critisism - you name it, you're sure to find it here.

Hi Robert and welcome! What an interesting portrait you have shared. It makes me wish I had done some portraits of my children at this age. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Robert,

Welcome, your delicate offering above proves that even the most difficult of subjects, when put in proper and interesting light, can be artfully depicted.

Do infants charge less for modeling, or, are all fees waived when the subject is sleeping? Or, did you instruct the baby to pose as if sleeping?

What size is this piece?

Thank you all,
I will post more paintings when I find the proper place for them.

The painting is 18 x 36 inches. The model is my neice Jozlyn. The fee... I believe I bribed her with a cookie.
