This painting was a reproduction printed on paper and secured to cardboard. I then hand painted in new shoes, pigtails, and made the chin smaller. I also painted the frame pink, and glazed the color of the shirt pink as well. The original painting was of a boy and can be seen in the second image. My intent was to make subtle changes which would make a little boy playing with a truck into a little girl playing with a truck. AFter all the modifications were finished the entire surface was covered with a thick glaze of acrylic medium which unifies the painting and make the modifications blend into the original work seamlessly.
