A wonderful lovely young lady with distinctive features, eyelashes and hair. I can't resist trying to paint her.

Modeling the forms and features is the really fun part of this painting. And working with the pert little nose and the lush hair - yummy.

Thanks to Emery for once again being my model.

    This is such a sweet painting dad- it was a surprise to see her little face appear on your blog. I love the colors you chose too. Great job!

    Thank you. It's now framed and hanging at the office where it attracts comments.
