This is little Caitlyn. Her picture was included in the reference photos for use in creating the whimsical 'couture' painting I just did. She is 9 now, but I absolutely loved this photo of her as a toddler. I wanted to push myself to try doing a portrait that actually would resemble an original portrait photo. I'm pleased with my first attempt, even though I know she's not perfect nor 100% accurate :) It's a start!
I'm going to give this to Caitlyn's mom, even though it was practice, I'm hoping she'll enjoy having it.
HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYBODY!

Caitlyn's mommy has seen Darla's newest undertaking and loves it! Caitlyn's mommy also cried ~ surprise, surprise. Darla captured Caitlyn's somber personality perfectly. (Caitlyn isn't usually a somber child). I think it's absolutely perfect!
