This is a young girl that makes you smile in her presence. I loved watching her bubbly personality. She is a playful one, and lights up the room. Her freckles drove me nuts trying to get them right, but I got them. I had some time to work on hers, more than some of the others of late, as the school year has ended. Her choice in shirts drove me nuts with the odd yellow sheriffs badge outline on the other design. I used Painter IX to paint this portrait. I'm quite pleased with this one, I hope you like her.

Amazingly luminous and beautiful portrait...

Artist Reply: Thanks Sara! She is growing up into a young woman so fast that this portrait is outdated in less than 6 months. She is a beautiful young lady.

Beautiful capture!!!!! Excellent subject and work!!!!

Artist Reply: Thank you Deborah! I have been working on painting eyes better. Lashes give me the most trouble as if you paint as many as there teally are, they look so awful. I have to work at them to get a good balance. Skin tones are the easiest for me, freckles being accurately placed, that was a challenge!

Terry, you are the best portrait queen. What a perfect painting. You just slay me with that great work. Love to you and your family. I am moving next week, so I will be a little out of pocket but I will keep you all posted, out of state

Artist Reply: Thanks Miguel! Best wishes on your move! There will be a garden waiting for you to plan and to tend to. I will be on vacation in a few weeks and on the road as well. All you guys watch out! Road trip with my sister! I will be looking for flowers, barns, and whatever I might find of interest on the way.

wow...what a posibilities of computer to do such a great art...awsome.....very artistic and great talent...

Artist Reply: Thanks Bianca! There is so much that can be done, and will be developed inthe future. So many wonderful elements. We just need time to play with it all and try it out as it's developed. I create some of my own favorite brushes and textures in some of the programs I have. I'm not so limited to what a program has, you can pop from one program to another often to use what feacture you need.

Yes, I like her!.. lovely portrait..:-)

Artist Reply: Thanks Terry! She charmed me the first day I saw her, outside at the school, flip off her shoes, twirl the swing until she got dizzy, then plopped on the sand and laughed. So funny, we all had to smile! She's a smart girl as well as charming.
