That is a beautiful painting of Arianna and Taylor, Garth. Gorgeous color and a wonderful feel to it. I am especially impressed with the skin tones. How nice the parents were supportive of this pose. In my case this is the third portrait I am doing for this family. Each child has been represented in a 16x20 head and shoulders pose in pastel at approximately 14 months of age. He is a real cutie but I am restricted by the previous portraits and the wishes of the mother. There is nothing prettier than a little one in the garden in morning light. I'm not going to copy the skin tones exactly from the outdoor shoot but use them to reference the indoor pose to spice them up. Wish me luck, and thanks for all of your input.
