It always happens. I sleep, I wake, I look at the painting/s I finished the night before, and I see several things to change. Can you see what I changed? (Other than color differences... that's just my camera's doing.)

You've really captured their sweet expressions... and the kitten's fluffy texture. I can almost FEEL how soft she is!
Susan, both are just great and the "improvements" the next day are even better! The eyes, yes, it's the eyes that are more expressive. Funny how we see things differently the following day...guess we all do that, at least I do!
Hi Susan, They were beautiful then and they are beautiful now. These two paintings will be cherished forever.
Wow - these are both great. I think I like the dog best, with all the subtle color changes.
Thank you R, Ann, Barbara and Lisa?Bill? ! These two little faces cheered be up considerably. I enjoyed the company as I painted, too. It felt good to make the little changes this morning. I wish all painting projects were so much fun!
I'm not sure what you did but I see the most difference in the dog. He now sort of comes out of the painting!!...
Both are absolutely wonderful!!!
I showed my family at a get together over the weekend and as everyone else they were extremely impressed ! I feel so lucky !!!
And yes Auggy does look dimensional with that jutted out jaw !
