New Painting

I finally finished shopping and wrapping for Christmas and had some time to paint. I really wasn't sure how this would turn out, since I started with a picture of my daughter and made some changes to her pose. (Sorry Tori!) I loved the original picture but wanted to try some of the techniques I've been learning in Misty's class.

I'm on vacation from work starting Dec. 24th through Jan. 3rd. I'm really looking forward to a nice long break!!
