Very beautiful,Michele! It seems that you get better with each painting. Do you feel like you are?

Wow.
Of course she was thrilled! I especially enjoy the way you have designed the portratis to be compatible, but still very individual. Beautifully done work Michele.

You have this hair thing down. The boy's hair is perfect, and I love the back lighting with the girl.

Wonderful Michele. You seem to be doing plenty - have you been getting faster do you think? Not that it is important at all, but I remember you had mentioned it.

I have been getting faster, and though I don't know if every painting is better than the one before it, as Cynthia asked, I know my work has been getting better over time.
As an example, these two paintings took me about half the time I think they would have taken a year ago. It's mostly because I don't need to rework things as often, and because I plan more from the start.

This is so beautiful, Michelle. I learn a lot from each portrait you post. Thank you so much. The little girl's love for her puppy really comes through! Congratulations on capturing that emotion.
