This lovely child is as gentle and sweet as she looks. Lucky me to paint her!

Oh, yes, Chris! Please post some close-ups! You've got such a lovely thing going with the colors here. Those dark greens and the blue is perfect with her hair and skin. It's a beautiful portrait.

Chris, this is lovely! What a beautiful face, freshly and strongly painted. Please post some closeups, I would love to see how you navigated the shadow side of the face.

Really nice! Like the color in the shadows especially...I've been struggling with this.

Hi Chris,

This is another beautiful and lovely work.
I loved the colors and how you captured her expression.

I am struggling through the same problem: however, your's looks SO nice and fresh!

I love the unusual use of the greenish flowers in front, a really good example of an analogous color composition.
