Mary, as usual these are both so lovely. You have the uncanny ability to capture the essence of children. I just love the way you handle lighting. What a pair these two make! The client is going to kiss you.

Hi Mary,

These are beautiful, fresh, and will hang togehter very well. Don't stop posting vignettes, you are encouraging me to try one myself.

You have a wonderful, charming touch with children; not everybody can do this. Congratulations again!

Mary, Will is great. The lighting is spot on. He is nearly ready to walk out of the paper. It is a thrill to see you develop your style.

Mary, this pair is so sweet together! You can just feel the warmth of the sunlight on their hair and shoulders. Luminous.

Thank you everyone, your kind comments have made my day.

Linda, I have never understood why people say children are hard to paint. I find it to be the other way around.
