I think I'm finished with CiCi's portrait but will let it sit around for a few days just in case I see something that needs to be tweaked. Oh, the colors in this scan show brighter and more pronounced than they are in reality. Also, the shadow area around her mouth isn't really pink but I used a mauve-y gray there and when I sprayed with SpectraFix, the area became more pink and shows up worse in this scan. This is the first color change I've had using SpectraFix and I think it's because I used it heavily as Teo 21 suggested in a comment on Poppy. I didn't get any spots though!
I have to thank my dear friend, Jane, for helping me see why I couldn't paint our babies before. I'm still not sure about this one, whether it really captures her or not but my husband thinks it does and he's the "customer" in this case! At least I finally finished a portrait of our fur child so Thank you, Jane!
If you all see anything that could be better, don't hesitate to let me know!
