This little girl is my husband's nieces daughter -- Sophie. She is wearing her Christmas dress in the painting. Sophie is now about 13 years old, and growing into a pretty young lady.
I started painting in oils in 1992, merely as a hobby. I then played around in watercolors in the mid '90's. Finally, in 1997, I retired from my full-time job as a computer specialist to devote all my time to painting. Around the same time, I also discovered the wonderful world of acrylics, and now have been painting in this medium ever since this discovery.
Beautiful colors - nice work!
