Work in progress.....

So I thought I would challenge myself and at least try to enter some of my artwork into the Summer exhibition... It'a a little dream and I thought I would never get here... this is my first time entering and I have to say I really pretty nervous and probably scared stiff that the selection committee might not select my work for entry arrrgghhhh!!!!! but here's a little sneak peek at my piece in stages... I haven't finished it yet and I am thinking and working on a fitting background!!! 
  
  



It's inspired by my litle girl Maoleidigh (may-lee-dee) is it nature or nurture? At nearly two she has a huge personality and already there are certain things she insists upon... She has ringlets in her blonde hair which inevitably get a good going over with her mucky hands at meal times, making it a slightly unruly cute mess!
Her face has many expressions that sometimes make her eyes look too big. She loves the first bite of an apple and would certainly give you a 'look' if you were about to "interfere".
Why? do they dress up and sweeten little girls outfits when it's already designed and made to look 'CUTE'? Her boots are her go to shoe... as soon as she's up they will find themselves snugly on her feet (sometimes the left and right mixed) just in case the door should open a touch so she could squeeze through the gap!!! Of course to her they go with EVERY outfit, pretty dress, jeans or the simple birthday suit... The theme this year is 'RAW' I went for tenderness, mother's love and decided to paint on wood which I've had great difficulty with but practice and all that... tee hee!
SO any feedback, constructive critisism would be greatly appreciated thank you. BiG HuGs Kim :)
