new "be..." paintings

happy monday.  i have been busy creating a new series of paintings that have really gotten me excited about painting again.  i have taken a few steps backwards and am painting my girls without facial details.  i am calling this series the "be...." series.  below are the first two that i will be posting in my etsy shop:

entitled "be honest"

entitled "be yourself"

Would love to know what you think...ox, mary ann
