Gianna laughing

This is my granddaughter, Gianna laughing. I used this pose for the "Bubbles and flower Surprizes" painting. This is the portrait I was working on when I stopped to paint her as a laughing fairy. Her hair was all fluffy and curls were everywhere. If she's like her Aunt, she'll get more curls in as her hair grows. She's such a beauty, like her mother,a really stunning beautiful child, whith a precious laugh. She is ususally laughing at something and enjoying life. I used Painter IX.5 software to digitally paint this portrait. It is not a photo manipulation. I used photos for referrence to be more accurate.

Love that smile. She is a cutie pie. Awesome job.

Artist Reply: Thanks Penny! She is a goof at time, but has such a good sense of humor. She makes me laugh. She is such a character, and loves to tease.

Skillfully rendered. At first glance it does look like a photo. Such a cutie!

Artist Reply: Thanks Geri! I try in many of my portraits to get more realistic. I enjoy doing them. I could photoshop photos, or use a program to convert to a painting-don't like the way those look, but rather do it myself and challenge myself to do the bork myself. More satisfying for me. I also like to vary the mediums and styles a bit so that they are not all done the same.
