Meet Jo, from Little Women.  Louisa May Alcott’s tale has always been a favorite of mine, both on film and on the page, although her book particularly speaks to me.  Each character is so real, so beautifully crafted, that the reader can’t help but relate to them, and I seem to find a piece of myself in each of the four girls.  I have been wanting to paint their portraits for quite a while now, and Jo is the first one up.
