Thank you, Mischa, Michele and Chris,
Yes, Mischa, Quinee does have quite the personality. Just last weekend she had a dance recital where she spent the entire second half of her routine spying into the audience and waving to everybody. She knows no strangers.
Michele, I'm happy to post a close up. I hope it comes out as well. I'm on a different computer and am not sure if it will affect the color or not.
And, thank you, Chris. I'm glad you like it. It seems to be a bit more of a growth process as I am trying to incoporate more of a natural feel than a photographic feel which is difficult for a resource photo reference. I'm trying to rely on what I learn in life painting sessions.

John!
Fabulous! This can easily be regarded as a finest work as we all are echoing. What a lovely composition and countenance! Keep a series going of your grandchildren!

Very dynamic use of the canvas! I love the shapes of the negative spaces around her form.
