Portrait of daughter in oil.

I painted this during the Covid 19 Lockdown. I am writing this a s a blog because I didn't think it was apt to go in the Open Air Gallery. She posed for 4 x 20mins with 10min breakers in-between. It took me 10 - 12 hours to complete.
She liked it and asked me to do a matching one of her fiancee. I'll post when completed.
