Wow! I love this painting. What a pretty child and you captured a very special expression on her face. Please post this again when you are finished. Your daughter-in-law must be so pleased!

That's her "bed head", the actual shows a lot more definition.<br />Dean, I'm so afraid you're right...I see it but am soooo reluctant to make such a major change, but I know if it is going to be right I'm going to have to do it.Lokelani Forresthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02653502523287408543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3162622965236233135.post-74904080941740612662010-05-10T06:58:20.000-07:002010-05-10T06:58:20.000-07:00That facial expression is perfect!

See how many face lengths will fit into each section. Of course this is just IMHO.<br />Good luck on learning your new computer setup.Dean H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02834470562550878971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3162622965236233135.post-58039123412133628992010-05-01T22:52:19.153-07:002010-05-01T22:52:19.153-07:00it is great Lokelani.

You...it is great Lokelani. The style is integrated.<br />You might be looking for a coral color along the calf of her right leg to give the reflection of the fore shortened limb and the hair on her left with a little more definition in the shadow. <br />She is a lovely child.Earthulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08278844142883810013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3162622965236233135.post-36547728464048273952010-05-01T17:55:05.877-07:002010-05-01T17:55:05.877-07:00Beautiful painting and so is Ellie.
