Jade Victoria by

Portrait of my daughter Jade Victoria.

This was a photograph taken on her very first day without glasses and wearing contacts. Her very first time and she was so happy.

I painted this picture after seeing a Renior at the National Gallery. So, although I could not paint like the master I set out to pretend that I could paint like him. I looked at his ladies, the back ground the colours and set out to do the best that I could.

This acrylic painting is bigger then life size and is fianlly finished. Hope to uplaod a better picture of it tomorrow as its late at night now and I am not seeing too well.

This is my first Portrait and I hope to do some more. Billy
