Eden

I've started a portrait of my daughter. As much as I stare at her pretty face every day it's very hard to paint it. I still need to tweek the face a bit. It's a tough angle, it's a little bit of a forshortened figure and her face angles slightly up. But I think I got her features down OK. I miss oils. The colors are so much nicer and more fluid. I am so impatient with them though, it just doesn't work with my painting schedule anymore. Paint and go, paint and go.

I look forward to getting this one just right.
