Thank you Enzie, Jimmie and David, I appreciate all of your nice comments. I can't help but comment how dark this is looking on my monitor though, I seem to be having a horrible time posting accurate images lately!

This is lovely, Mary, and I agree with everyone who commented on the color harmony you chose. I think you are cornering the market on cute children in North Carolina!

Thank you Linda, I just swapped out the original image with one a little closer to the real color..I give up, a technical wizard I am not.

Mary,

Lovely piece! That LaCarte color is so wonderful against skin tones. I also want to comment on how effectively you have handled this vignette, losing edges at the bottom of the portrait, but retaining them at the edge of the sleeve.

Very nice Mary,

I really like the collar on her dress.

So sweet Mary! I've always loved shirring, and you've captured it (and her ) beautifully.

Mary,

The new photo looks much better on my computer! She looks like a handful. I also like this vignette, with a suggestion of arms. As always, her hair and dress are beautifully done.

Jean
