Pink Barrette-Child Portrait

Close ups

Oil on 7x5 hardboard.

This is my contribution to this week's DPW's The Simplify Cute Challenge posted by Carol Marine.
Her instructions basically were to simplify a way too busy background. Then she said: "Feel free to change anything, crop, whatever. Have fun!"

I loved trying to paint the effect of the bright sun light on the girl.

Not exactly Vermeer's Girl With A Pearl... but Girl With A Pink Barrette was loads of fun to paint.
