Maddie Raine
This is a precious babe named Maddie. The challenge for me with this piece was to convey the "essence" of Maddie, without masking or over-emphasizing her Down's Syndrome.
I purposefully chose to paint Maddie with a warm light and a cool light on opposing sides of her to have the opportunity to attempt such a fun and colorful challenge.
Maddie is a super fun little girl, and I do hope this portrait helps to celebrate her personailty.
