Rylea Beth #1

Will re-post the pic after revisions.

This is my first attempt at painting a portrait. I set up a cool light in front of her and a warm light behind. Don't know why...I suppose just to confuse myself. Painted from a photograph, she can't sit still long enough to paint.

Baby Sarah and Rubber Duck



My daughter's favorite doll. Painted alla prima from life. My first still life. It was much harder than I thought it might be, but a lot of fun.
