Lean on Me ~ day 2

OK,  so it's  day 6 since I last posted ...but, scout's honor,  this is the second day I painted on this piece  (went away for a couple days last week (20th anniversary, had a great time but forgot to pack my travel paints.).  Today I added an abstracted version of the design in Elena's white suit; made a few tweaks with hair shadows and values.  Loosely touched the feet.  I almost left them out but now think they work.  The strokes on the painting are more distinct than this photo shows.  Please click the painting above to enlarge; you will see the colors are more vivid. On to the next one in my summer review.
