Margot

NFS - 16x12in. - Oil. - "Margot"

This is Margot. We had a group photo shoot a few weeks ago, with Margot and her sister, Hattie, and the other two kids I've painted so far - Rietta and Ryan - all grandkids of some good friends of mine. They ran around at the playground, and whenever they were in particularly good light, or a fabulous setting popped up (like this little playhouse window) I said - hold it right there! Otherwise they just played together. I was mostly an observer, and it was so neat to see their personalities emerge. People are just fascinating, and kids are great because they haven't learned to fake anything yet. I am loving this!!
