COMMISSIONED PORTRAIT FROM PHOTO Mary & Lamb Work in Progress 3
For some reason I've worked this portrait differently to how I normally do. Usually I work all areas equally, going over and over adding layers and details and amending as I go along. For whatever reason I felt I had to get the baby's face quite well developed before even putting in initial tones on the garment and ribbon.
I like how you have got the puffyness of the cheek and the whole pose.
