Nearing the homestretch on this one. I am remembering how Mother made our dresses. She made three out of these five, I think. This picture is at an angle

Eden is finished

This is Eden. She is painted on oil primed Belgian Linen. I just finished her and hope to deliver her to her mama soon. She is a beautiful child in a way that is unlike childhood- it has to do with her hair, her expression. She has quite a depth to her. I loved painting her. And I can't wait to see who she becomes.
