During the whole process of trying different ideas with mother and baby, I decided to pose the baby in different ways and then suddenly had this idea. After explaining it to the mother we both started laughing exictedly so I figured, why not paint it? It's a bit reminiscent of my ballerina painting and was a lot of fun to paint.
