Now that Cooper’s face is emerging, you can see why I wanted a background color that is a bit “wild”.

Cooper’s face completed.
It was a huge help to have Diane's words about Cooper. He reminds me of my Troy, a dog who grabbed life with both hands. I held Cooper’s personality and spirit in my consciousness while working on his face…and that really helped me capture his expression and joy.
When I sent these in-progress pics to Maura, she replied:
“These are great! You are so talented! I can't wait for Diane to see the final version!”
❤️ Surprise gift from Maura Reilly to Diane and Michael Schurman.
