Delicate

Continuing with my exotic theme of tropical flowers and animals as well as my quest to grow as an artist by perusing a new medium and portraits, I have created the below painting.  Capturing emotion is such a challenge and hope to get better at this with practice.  I decided to paint my beautiful niece from a stunning photo I took of this intense stare.  I decided to paint the orchid to represent her beautiful exotic delicate and unique little lady that she is becoming. Hope everyone enjoys it.
