There is a lot I still need to do on it and also fix, so I am expecting it will evolve as I go on.

Fat Fingers, double posted.
I didn't get chance to do any painting yesterday but I've worked on this today and I am starting to feel a bit better about it. Still a lot to do though.
It’s really starting to look good Denise. 
That is REALLY coming along, Denise - are you using our friend Mr Zorn for this one too?  It's working, whatever you're doing.  
I am using the Zorn for the skin but she has deep blue eyes so I've added a touch of French Ultramarine with the flake white and a touch of the skin tones for the eye balls. The hair Burnt Sienna and Raw Umber but I haven't finished the hair or face yet. I'm not sure if I will put a jewelled earring in and I'm debating on a feather or a flower in the hair. Of course, I have the dress to do as well. I also need to lighten some of the chest area and bring it up to some of the tones in the face. Oh, yes, I need to fix that ear.

Well, I've been on it since about 9 this morning and I'm going to call it finished now. It is only a practice piece till I gain the experience. I've just sent it to her, I'm not expecting a good response, she is a modern Millie and I'm sure she won't like the style of it. Wish me luck.
Looks good to me Denise nice skin tone and the eyes have it..
Thanks Bari, I'm laughing with happiness, she phoned to say, she likes it. I can't believe it.
What a lovely thread and what a great result Denise.  You put me to shame  I’m prevaricating and prevaricating over Bills pic.   I am not at all your suorised daughter likes it , praise indeed if anyone is honest is daughters with their mums.    Great. 
It’s excellent Denise and I happy for you that your daughter likes it.
