Okay this is the final product. We worked on Mary's nose a lot. It helped me to hear what details were important to the buyer- Mary's nose was. As you other artists know there are a million details that we could noodle and it could take years to do one painting if we let it! She also asked if I could add the headbands which I thought was a great touch. I added the Dove in the corner- actually the Dove added Himself - he kind of appeared in the brushstrokes but he did take work so that it didn't distract from the rest of the painting. The original painting had a lot of warm tones in the foreground which I morphed into flowers. I like flowers and I wanted them to grow around Mary and Jesus. Well - hope I didn't ramble too much but read what you want and leave the rest behind.
