This painting challenged me in a way that I have never been challenged before. I found that getting the expression right on the child's face was something that I worked on and worked on and then reworked again.
The order was for a 10 x 10 inch painting but I was unable to get the size requested and painted it as a 12 x 12 for the same price.
This chandelier was a custom order. Glitzy aged gold in the background and a blue gem twinkles in the eye.
The painting was supposed to be done on a smaller canvas and it wasn't until I was layers into the texturizing and aging that I realized I had started it on a 30 x 30. Much larger.
The client was so kind and was fine with my size mix up.
Since I had quoted the price on the smaller canvas that is what we stuck with.
