What a beautiful, optimistic portrait you have portrayed of a lady with a real sense of adventure.

Marvelous work Katie. A wonderful cheerful and very natural expression. A gem.

What a great portrait and without your saying I get a real sense of her character and what more could you want a portrait to be.

Thanks for your comments! Always a quite scary showing someone their portrait, you never know if its ok or not. You can probably tell I really admire this lady in lots of ways so I really wanted her to like it!

I bet she was delighted with it. Really superb.

I like the way you have compressed the three into the space and added other interesting elements without cluttering the painting giving a real insight into the main character. Brilliant

This a portrait of a good friend of mine, I had already painted one of her husband a few years ago and he wanted one of her. She is an inspirational character, full of life, optimism and has a love of nature and of course her dogs. I hope I have done her justice, she really is one of a kind.
