At several stages I was going to give up and toss it away, but decided to just keep adding more layers of color and this morning it finally turned for the better.
I am still not happy that she doesn't want to look at me, (I love making the portrait look at the viewer right into the eye) but I guess that's the way she is. Her mind is in her art probably. I hope by now it shows that she is holding a paint brush ;oP

And for today, my daughter has a mad cigarette fuming. Her own campaign to show smokin is not good for you.

Beautiful face! Love the cigarette too! ;-)
She came out great, Martha. All those layers and colors make her really pop! Kathryn
i'm glad you didn't throw her away, she's so sweet...it's as if she's saying "everything will be ok" just lovely!
I love the blue eyes... sweetness on a gray day. Blessings, Mary helen Fernandez Stewart
Very nice indeed!

She has that "mmmm....paint....!" look in her eyes, which I'm sure is how most of us look most of the time :D XXX
I love your lady Ayala... there is something very illuminating about her... and once again your daughter's work is fabulous...

Oh, she looks wonderful in color! And that hothead cigarette is hilarious!
Gorgeous colours!
She has one of those Mona Lisa smiles
The eyes on your painting, are so beautiful! Stunning! Good for your daughter!
Gorgeous and your daughter's drawing is so funny, love them both!
I had to laugh at your daughter's drawing, it's not aimed at you is it?.. And I like te way your painting finished up with a paintbrush in her hand...great!!!..x..
Beautiful face! ... the girl.
Your daughter's drawing speaks volumes!
Oh no, I don't smoke! I can't stand the smell of it either :o)
The eyes on the girl have such depth. Lovely!
Love the artist's face (wondering what 'face' to paint next perhaps?), I don't mind her looking away because it makes me wonder - what she's thinking?? But I know what your daughters drawing means LOL, wouldn't want to put that fuming little guy near my mouth!! He's great too :)
