This is a painting I have recently painted with acrylics on a stretched canvas. I am trying to achieve the softness in her face with the delicate skin tone to convey the innocence in her face. I will love to hear from you if I am able to achieve it or not. Any suggestion, please 🙂 😃

As usual, I have recorded the painting process for my YouTube Channel. **[You can view the process of painting here.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozSLqURgO54)**

The soulfulness in her eyes is beautiful. The skin tones look good to me.

Her eyes are very catching. I love the way you handled the medium.
