Hi folks--
This is the latest in what seems to be my "Blue Period." Everything I'm working on right now seems to have a preponderance of blue.
I'll deliver it tomorrow. We'll see what they say.
Best--TE
(Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.)

Lovely, thoughtful painting. I suspect they'll say they love it.

Beautiful portrait Tom. I love those little toes.
Good to have that go out before Thanksgiving. All those family members gathered around your work. Gives you a warm chingly feeling inside.
Have a great holiday.

This is my favorite of all the heads I've seen you paint. Transcendent.

Thanks to everyone for the positive response!
Marvin--I really appreciate this affirmation. She is a special child and I wanted to get the countenance right.
I'm trying to get away from formulaic color and paint with more nuance, turning form with color as well as value. (Everything is a little more sensitive in the original painting.) Aspects of The Palette have helped a lot with this.
Best--TE
