February 3, 2024 — Elaine O.

I was planning another Paris memory, but I got sidetracked with holiday memories instead. I wanted to get a few practice portraits in — and, to be honest, I had to do this because I had such a perfect title — Don We Now Our Gay Apparel. Isn't that just too perfect for this juxtaposition of the hat and the shirt? Worn, as they are, by this sweet little girl?

She still needs some fine tuning on her face...and then, there's the background. Originally, my intention was to only vignette her and her outfit. But now, I'm thinking she needs some kind of holiday background—if only to differentiate which holiday she's dressed for, Christmas or Halloween. (Thanks for that observation, Sara—good point!)

  1. Too funny. Maybe you could have an Easter background?

  2. I think she looked better in class than on that photo, more color and detail in her face. I liked that window in the photo and the 90 degree angle between those dark wooden things.
