Hello Lisa,

Just logged in and saw this. Very nicely rendered. Have to admit I had the same question as Janel for the first few seconds. Your son has very pronounced dimples which I imagine would be one of his strong characteristic physical traits, and although suggested in your painting,can be a bit more emphasized without ruining anything. This is my thought,although you know better than I how the painting looks "in person". I also like the way you handled what little of the hand can be seen,and the way you toned down the red of his lips. That would be, to my taste, a good "translation" of how his lip colour looks like in the photo. I like this.

Carlos
