Katherina
Just finished. She is daughter of my friends, she is cute, talented, and very smart for her age... 
Oil on canvas, 16"x20". Painted as a gift for her parents. I hope they will like it.

Brant that is very sweet. I'm sure the little girl's parents will love it!

Re: Katherina
Thank you very much, dear friends. This is my first portrait of a child, and I tried to convey the nature of this bright little girl, and a light translucency of her skin. I hope that I managed to do it ...
