This is amazing. I love the sultry eyes. The hands look real. You also have the hair right down, truly a blond stands before us. The shadows on the face are perfect. Your daughter is quite beautiful. Thank you for sharing this.

Hi Sherri, I think you did a wonderful job creating this! I think you did a nice job with the pucker of the lips. I can clearly picture your daughter doing this. Beautiful detail and tones within. Especially love the detail in her hair! The airborne confetti was very nicely done too! Good Job!

A beautiful portrait of this young woman blowing metal confetti into the air. It seems to be very natural and realistic, the dark background really accentuates this woman's portrait.

This is a lovely portrait of your daughter that you have created. It is very realistic looking showing great emotion and foreshortening is exceptionally done. You are obviously very talented.
