Proud Ellie


 12 x 16 oil on linen panel

This cutie belongs to one of my Facebook Friends.   I saw it when she posted it and loved her cute little expression on her face so I asked her mother if I could paint her.   She had just graduated from 3 year old pre-school and had such a happy,  proud look on her face.  I love figurative painting and don't really go so much for an exact likeness as I do for a gestural or personality sketch.   She was fun to paint and made me smile.
