Deb, keep it simple and limited palette if you try! It was so much fun to do

What a wonderful painting. Your shading and the values are terrific. I am mesmerized by the eyes, the Childs eyes in particular. All of your hard work has truly paid off for you.
Wonderful Margaret. I get the feeling your grandmother was a strong woman. She has a beautiful expressive face and you captured that strength. I also really like your use of shapes in the folds. They move my eye around from mother to child and are such great clean and telling shapes.
The feeling and expressions are incredible.

It’s so well done! The colors you chose seem very appropriate to the time. It makes me want to try doing one with my old photos!
