Happy New Year,

Maryam,
I really appreciate your input!
I agree as well with what you pointed out. Marvin is correct again (after all he is my teacher). I am working on those specific areas and should be ready (hopefully) soon!
Frans Hals! Wow! Thank you for even mentioning him here, and he is one of my favorites too.

Happy New Year!
