GISELLE FINISHED

Although technically it isn't the best portrait in the world, I'm really happy that I've captured the real Giselle in this painting.

 There's a certain amount of unfortunate camera-glare which lightens the whole thing.

Trying to get a photograph of her is difficult, because she usually pokes her tongue out at the last moment; you can see were here son (Topgun) gets it from See him here
