Shawn looking forward

[Vianna Szabo]

Thank you, Janet, Garth,John, and Alexandra

This was a lot of fun to paint and I find the limited palette liberating. You can still mix an endless array of colors and tones without losing the unity of the original colors. Thank you also for the kind words about the "intangible aspects". This painting has a few rough spots but I felt I reached a point where it became him and decided to stop.

Those are indeed some terrific lips on that kid.

Thank you again for your comments.

Vianna, what a strong convincing work.
I like the composition and the size of the head in the canvas, it says something about how close you are

Vianna, this is wonderful. Isn't it amazing what happens when the pressure is off!

I have a daughter her could meet!

Vianna, this is beautiful! Your son and your painting simply wonderful! I would not fret to much about your camera you mixed and placed what you saw and where you saw it and you feel good. Enjoy.

If we could only relax and execute each peace in the same manor. I believe life would be much simpler with more moments like this.

I love your subtle transitions. Could I trouble you for a few close ups? A bit closer for the shadow and light relationship, the nose eye triangle and then the neck.

Wish you all the best,
mischa
