Finished Portrait

I finally finished this portrait of my niece.  24" x 30", oil on linen.  It was a lot of fun to do. I had difficulties with the skin tones as I took the photo on a cloudy day.  It was a little trickier for me to figure out with no obvious direct sun hitting the face.  Now to figure out whether to ship it to England when it is dry and varnished or take it with me on my next trip home this year.

You will never guess what I'm onto painting now.  Something a bit different for me.  I like a challenge.  So stay tuned.
