At the time I painted this “First Run” portrait of my elder daughter, I was quitting my previous job. I was pretty much occupied and had so much handover tasks to be completed before I left. I squeezed time to paint to balance myself. I just knew something not right by that time but couldn’t tell how exactly (don’t know what happened to my eyes).
Sitting in front of a painting for hours really needs a time-out to readjust my lens.
After months, I changed to fresh eyes to view this piece again and I tried to correct my huge overlooks. Here I tried to correct the facial structure and warm the color tone. I cannot tell if this is enough but at least I’m contented with it.
There is never a perfect painting just how you view it. Hope I don’t need another remake of the same piece. But who knows, huh? :)
