Some tips. The Photoshop thingy does look like she is leaping into her mother's arms. I will be pilloried for this advice, but here goes! TRACE IT!!
Not at all Sharon, although I may sound anti-photo I am all for doing whatever it takes to complete a commission be it for a portrait or a illustration. Although It may sound hypocritical of me I feel that when it comes to work and making a living sometimes you must do what you must do to get the job done. Even the great Norman Rockwell used these tools There was a lucidagraph in his studio in Stockbridge.
