Wonderfully done...that smile is so candid and genuine...her personality reads so well in your representation of her. I agree with David Draime

This treasure of a painting will be at every family Christmas gathering for decades to come, I'm sure.

Beautiful work, Garth! I like how you kept the teeth from overshadowing the face.

Since I'm about to start a portrait with the teeth having to show, I naturally am looking for good examples of how to handle it - so, thanks!.

Her face radiates "summer," that childlike wonder that if we're lucky to live long enough, we all might hope to rediscover.
