Second Canvas WIP

Today I was able to work on the four children and the shadow in the water. I know there are passages really bothering me but I would be interested in knowing what jumps out at you that will need my attention tomorrow. It is hard not to want to go in the FINISH each figure but I know that this only happens in successive layers.

Tomorrow I hope to get the reflection in and work on the sand, water and sky some more. I have a hard time painting real thin layers as too much medium and I can't control the brush, nevertheless these layers are pretty thin.

I printed up your advice and now your words Allen, Alexandra, Debra are on my walls reminding me of things to think about as I paint!

Thanks for looking
Patty
