My first 6 inch by 8 inch.

I have never painted a portrait this small, but Karen Jurick and Carol Marine do it all the time.This was painted with a quarter inch wide flat brush. I'll try some more in the future and bump up the color saturation.

    Hard to believe this is so small...at first I thought it was much bigger.
    Gwen below looks awesome too.

    Astonishing. Small is difficult. I like a sweep of brush, but do the small, just not portrait mostly.

    Good for you. A wonderful portrait.

    Your fan in Toronto.
