On the cloudy, cold, and windy winter day we have here today, I decided to post this painting from a photo I took of my niece last summer to remind me of what warm sunshine feels like! I was drawn to the way the sunlight shining through the holes in her straw hat hit her face. It was FUN to paint! I also liked the look on her face. I left the bottom portion unfinished to add to the carefree, summertime feeling. I just entered this in the Oil Painters of America's National Show. Hope it makes it in!
