acrylic  24" x 30"  on canvas

Finished on October 15, 2003, this was a painting of my oldest daughter done in a pop art sort of style. The goal was to keep only the shapes that would identify the face as hers. It took many iterations of sketches to get the look I wanted and still retain the cartoonish appearance. In addition,this was the first larger painting I had ever attempted using acrylic. There was a definate learning curve with the color shift that happens as acrylics dry. I was relieved to have this one finished at the time. It seemed to be more work than I thought it would be when I started. I was and am still happy with the results.
