First time I have painted acrylic on canvas for a long time. i was trying for the Van Gogh challenge but it doesn’t look much like a Van Gogh. it is tough to do those gooey rhythmic strokes of his in acrylic.. it dries so fast! anyway, i still like it

somewhere between 3 and 4 hours. acrylic on 8 x 10 inch canvas.

You captured the body position just right – and that is a difficult thing to do. Well done!!

BUT, I do like your version of this sweet little girl (they set them to work young there don’t they? :eek:)

Cheers, Maureen
