This was my first painting on a canvas. I took a long time to complete it. I like the way the fabric and skin looks. It showed me a path to a style of painting that I cam back to after a few experiments you'll see in later posts. I botched the proportions of the baby's arms, the mother's hand, and the face completely (look at it sideways). It taught me that you can't do human features by sight - I now use a careful grid sketch and even pull out a ruler to get the proportions of things more correct. Still learning.
