Leighla - oil painting

I decided to try some oil painting of faces so I asked granddaughter-in-law Melissa for recent candid photos of their children. I like to try to see if I can accomplish likenesses.  It is a struggle, but I hope that practice will help to make it come more easily.  In any case, I will keep trying!  Leighla has two brothers and I will try paintings of them next.
