Ben




Finally got around to doing Ben several months after taking the pictures. The red seems a little too red on my monitor, but close.

Agree with Marvin about this being your best. This seems to have more life and volume. Keep it up.

Mary,

This is my favorite of yours. Such a light haired little guy, if I would have attempted this it would have turn out chalky. You did a great job.

Thanks to everyone. I have been in such a creative slump lately, you have all given me a little boost.

Janel, this is the third version of Ben. The first one I finished and brought upstairs to take a picture, no sooner had I turned around did realize my 19mo had it smudged to her shirt. The second version is the oh so chalky version in the trash.

This one fortunately turned out OK. This is a good thing since this woman has 6 more grandchildren she wants done.

Mary-- that must have been so frustrating with the first one being spoiled like that. But this version sure turned out sweet! He glows.
