Don't push too hard

I think you are experienced enough Sarah to see what needs attention. It's going in the right direction so keep working on it. That is my honest opinion. Acrylic is a very forgiving medium and therefore you are able to change anything in a piece of work.

Lovely composition Sarah. I do agree with John.

Sarah this is so different from you ,I love the light on the children they are well drawn and painted .The soft tones of the background act as a foil overall beautifully painted not sure you need to do any more ,excellent work.

Thank you all for your positive comments. Much appreciated :)

Lovely soft painting, Sarah. As for me it is finished.

I love the background too Sarah, lovely subject.

Cesare, Anne and Carole thank you very much.
