In response to this, one could compose a best selling child's book of verse that would celebrate this masterpiece for generations; it's that compelling! Bravo!

Thanks Garth!
I was interrested to see if I could developp an athmosphere different from a simple black backgroung, keeping just those 3 colors. I'm glad you think it works.
About the child's book, it's a good idea! I don't remember if I already showed you the one I made in collaboration with my mother who is a bookbinder : I had fun doing this, though it was a challenge to paint a figure so small! (3,5" x4,5" )
