She's already smiling and doing tricks for the leftovers.

" CHRISTMAS PORTRAIT "

8 x 8 Pen , pencil & watercolor

Well here we are a year later doing the Different Strokes From Different Folks Christmas portrait exchange again. We were given a picture of an other artist participating, so I am painting her and she is painting me. It is a surprise for both of us. For this one I have to admit I was influence by Alice Thompson with her decorative flair she applies sometimes to her work. My subject has the most beautiful green eyes so my decision to make her sweater green also was easy.

Please go check out all the entries so far with their actual pictures on U-Tube

I truly enjoyed doing this piece I hope my subject likes it too.
