Ilaria, this is a terrific painting, and I love the freshness of those high-key colors, perfect for a small child. Your direct and honest nature is reflected in your work and it is always a treat to see.
I read your posts here with great interest because the concept of speed in direct painting has become one of my own issues in working from life. It is MUCH different to work from a hired model than it is for a real-life client (especially children), The other problem of course is an expectation by many clients that a painting should or will look like a photograph.
Lately I've been studying painters like Laszlo who really capture portrait subjects in real-life time.
I do so admire what you are doing here, Ilaria!
