If that's just a quick sketch, then it's better than I thought. Congratulations on having a daughter, first child?

Looking foward to seeing what you do during your leave, if your daughter lets you!

This is beautiful - just lovely!

I have a theory - IF her eyes are off a bit it is because she is a mother and one eye is on the child...the other on her husband.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

Jim, I meant it started off as a quick sketch. I put a couple more hours into after I think. And yes, it is my first child. Hopefully I can do some work when she goes for naps.

Hi Josef,

You have a really original portrait. I like your unusual point of view.

Garth

This is really beautiful work, Josef. Yes the only thing that struck me as "out of tune" was the subject's left eye. It seems to me that the problem is that it's a bit dark in relation to the right eye, so that it looks clouded over. Perhaps if you lift it in value some. Otherwise, splendid.

Thanks Terri and John. I fixed the left eye but I forgot to post it. I will have to dig it somewhere in my pc.
