That's beautiful in so many ways...very talented and compassionate daughter you have. Thanks for sharing it

On edit...not your daughter...an 11 year old. Gives me hope.

On edit again...did you add information? She's your daughter and you are the mother of an artist! Absolutely beautiful picture. I hope it gets framed.

...especially for her age. Very talented!

It looks like a computer illustration to me. Did she use Adobe Illustrator?

Concept, color, composition. It's all good. Tell her to keep it up!

Edit to add: I just read post #28... that she's using the InkPad app. Well done!

That is so impressive...now that you have a digital image, I would say frame it to keep forever.

And then there is me...I can't draw a line.

What media was she using? The soft gradations look like airbrushing, or possibly watercolor or pastel.

This would definitely get a lot of sales as a poster.

and I say that as an artist myself in all sincerity.

I painted something when I was eleven that garnered many positive comments. Living in Mexico where the Day of The Dead is celebrated my painting was of two skeletons dancing and having a great time under the moon. Maybe it was the innocence that moved people. It was quite spontaneous. I never gave it a thought except that in Mexico the Day of The Dead seems to be a festive time to me.
