]Whoops! I'm afraid I got too excited with my new toy (digital camera) and posted fuzzy photos, thanks Michele. It's kind of like being told you have spinach between your teeth, embarrassing but you are sooo grateful to be told. The colors in the photo are slightly washed out but when I use the flash I get a lot of shine from the oil. Anyways here is the painting of Amy in focus.

Thanks for replacing the images, Vianna. They look fine now.

Hi Vianna,

You have a nice painting here. The lighting is unique. Did you have the light source set up close to the floor, perhaps in front of your easel? Just curious.

Thanks,

Hi Richard, you have a great eye for lighting. The light was close to the floor and just slightly to the left in front of me. It casts an odd shadow but I liked it with the "attitude" tilt of the head and the bent arm. A nice break from painting lovely children in soft light.
