37/100: Tommy

I painted this for my sister over the summer. This one was so challenging! I'm happy with the color choices, but I feel like I never could quite get his face right...so frustrating. I worked off of a picture I took of him about a year ago, but made some changes to the composition--much thanks to my sister Kathryn for her input with that! I also have a hard time depicting children. I feel like they always end up looking way older than they are. This one is in acrylic, but I feel like I'd like to try to do the same piece in watercolor sometime. We'll see.
