What
grandparent wouldn't love a beautiful painting of their grand baby?
This is my granddaughter Bailey and I loved doing this painting
of her. My goal with this piece was to really highlight the eyes
and facial expression. When planning the composition I cropped the
image to reinforce the face, letting her big eyes and smile shine.
The reference photograph was taken in my garage while she was playing
with her mother and really captured her delightful expression. The
right photograph is so important when painting children. The painting
is done in a “loose” style letting the brushstrokes
show giving this work a more painterly feel.
