They used to belong in turn to HER grandmother. My daughter is very excited about it, (the portrait, not the necklace)and unlike her cell phone, at least she can brag about something in school that, in all probability, her classmates don

Very beautiful Carlos !

You are proud too I can tell and you should be. This is such a fresh, direct and aware portrait.
Did you do it from life?

Lovely. This looks like what I imagine a "Spanish" portrait should be.

Very lovely, Carlos. Of course she is thirlled - and should be! Fourteen is a wonderful age for capturing these girls - you can see both child and woman at the same time.
