[Garth Herrick]

Dear Garth,

These are stunning photos by the way! Not bad ones to work from, except the white-out on Maria's forehead. It's interesting to compare passages of foliage details, fabric patterns etc. as you have skillfully interpreted them. They actually aren't exactly lifted from the photos, like one might think, but are your artistic interpretation.

Thanks for sharing the original photos, ...a rare treat in unveilings. You are braver than the other Garth!
