A long time ago, I met Val at the Y in weight training class. She has the most engaging smile and positive attitude. She is a skilled seamstress and over the years made slipcovers for furniture that I still use. She moved toWisconsin and now I only see her on Facebook. This is her granddaughter, an absolute clone of Val. Here she is looking forward to a day of skiing.
What an adorable painting! You've got her great smile and the shape of her body so well--even with the foreshortening in her legs and the dark jacket, you nailed it!
ReplyDeleteOh, it’s so charming! You really captured the energy of her age, not to mention her ability to crouch down like that! So well painted, just the perfect amount of detail.
