Anna at nine




I painted this oil of my daughter Anna in three days. It is 11"x 14" and fits nicely on my scanner so what you see is not a scanned photo but the scanned original complete with all its bumps and globs. ( I had to clean the scanner afterwards!) I painted most of this from memory. I had a very bad reference photo and brief periods of time where she would sit for me. I really enjoyed not being a slave to the photo.

I would love to capture the light of the old masters paintings and am curious about the skin tones. Are the shadows too warm? How about the edges? Actually any critique would be appreciated.
