Rainbow Lady's Challenge - faces of women

This is a work in progress for Paint Party Friday but I am entering it here for Rainbow Lady's Challenge  - many faces of women. I saw a mother and daughter in a catalog and copied their positions. I didn't try to get the same images, only how there were standing there together, and yet not together. Notice that they are leaning away from each other with their heads. Children begin quite young to try to pull away from their mothers. Mothers try to hold onto their young but eventually know that separation is a part of life.

Sorry this is not finished. If I can't get the features better, it may just wind up in the "round" filing cabinet on the floor.

    Faye, please don't "file it"! It's a very nice painting! I smiled at their faces because they were smiling...just as I would do if someone I saw in a store smiled at me. It's a happy painting :D

    Love the thought of the round filing cabinet.

    I think it looks lovely, though. I am awful at people. It's wonderful how you are always challenging yourself. What a great way to grow!
