Little Munchkin Giggle-Box

I've been worrking on this painting day and night, very intensely for the last couple of days. This is a picture of my friend having lunch with her little grand daughter. They were sitting under a pergola with the sun sprinkled on them when my friend's husband snapped the camera. My painting is different from the photo in that, I changed the composition and added foliage. As I worked and re-worked the happy little girl's face trying to get the expression just right, I found myself talking to her and ended up calling her little Miss Munchkin Giggle-Box.
