Really sweet Julie! You've done a super job of catching the feel of sun on skin - and those toes are just precious

Oh Julie, this is so adorable. Mom and Dad must be thrilled. It has all the magic of childhood and the sweetness of girlhood in it. I love it.

Thanks, Patty. It's just a little thing done for a lady at work. The little girl's likeness is spot on. I had to work from their photo, which was not that great for detail. Luckily I had other photos to give me more facial information.
I love how she lights up with happiness. She's ordinarily a very serious little girl.
It was also fun to work on a beach scene during the summer, but sobering considering the oil crisis in the Gulf. The thought of less happy moments in clear water and white sand is something I don't want to ever see come true.

Masterful head
Hi Julie,
I love the color notes in the head: the way you've observed the effects of the various light sources and how their effect on the skin tones. A lot of people just indiscriminately slosh color around to try to simulate this effect, but your result is a function of mindfulness and purposefulness. Bravo!
