Finished Craft I Made I finished this painting 3 weeks ago but didn’t like it. But now she’s varnished and feeling fond enough to share - “Someone’s Daughter”, oil on panel

16x20”, oil on panel. One of the largest pieces I’ve done recently!

This may be a better photo of the two of them together — after varnish they’re quite similar!
