wip: hammock time

 A friend's granddaughter ... I've been wanting to paint this photo for some time: the light, the mood. So summer afternoon. So tween.
Finally started and messed it up right off by painting the legs too dark and too blue. I guess I could try to lift or glaze ... But I think instead I'll think of this as practice and begin again.
Maybe with some cropping I can salvage a bit ...

Hello Laura , I have recently started to follow your blog. I love the light and color of your paintings. I also appreciate the information that you sometimes share.
