Labor of Palette Knife Love

This new painting I am finishing up has been a real labor of love for me. The sitter is someone I have known since her childhood. She has grown up into a smart, sassy and fun young lady.

Painted via my palette knife which wasn't so easy with the windswept hair. Persistence, persistence, persistence. I know I will get there in the end.
