I had fun working on this portrait of Meg. I painted from a photo I had taken of her down on the waterfront in Burlington last fall. I played around with different ways to crop the photo before finally settling on this composition. While I tend to work vertically, I wanted to capture a lot of Meg's hair in this painting, so this horizontal structure seemed the most interesting choice.  Hope you approve, Meg!
