Step-by-step oil painting - Little Ms. C

Since I won a drawing from the amazingly talented Eloy Morales, I wanted to do something to show my gratitude. It was this beautiful little girl who randomly picked a number amongst the comments of the IG post where he was giving away one of his studies, and that comment belonged to me. When I saw this picture of her when she had fallen asleep after the draw I immediately felt like I had to paint it. You know that feeling when your whole body tells you to do something? Well, that's how it was and I enjoyed painting it so much. The pose, the expression, the tenderness and the love...<3
 

So this was my gift to Eloy and this little girl. It is hard to make justice to someone when you paint them, but what I can say is that I painted it with passion and with a great dose of thankfulness. I'm not going to publish the original photo because it is not mine to show, so I'm sorry to say that you will never see if it is alike or not. 

I got to dedicate the painting to her and I did it in Swedish, so maybe one day she will learn the words and know what it says. 

Thank you little Ms. C and I wish you all the best in this big and crazy world!
