Beautiful!




Michele,

This should be in the unveilings section, in my opinion, it's beautiful! You have done a masterful job on this little girl. Her skin, her hair, the bow, it all has such a nice feeling to it.

Since it's in the critique section though, I looked for something to critique (!) and the only little bitty thing that sticks out to me is the vase of flowers. It looks a bit like it's floating. I think it's because there is a reflection on the floor in front of the vase, but on my monitor it looks like the vase is floating since the dark floor is not apparent directly below the vase. It may look totally different to you in real life, but I thought I would mention this very minor detail.

I would love to hear about this commission since I've read about your unveiling party in a previous post. Did the client know they wanted a full length portrait? Where did the commission come from, etc... Will you have an unveiling party for this portrait?

Joan
