Congratulations Jimmie! That is a remarkable pastel. There is a believable sensuality to the tonal development of her skin. Superb!

Garth

Jimmie,

Congratulations! Very well deserved. Of course, Burton knows great talent when he sees it. I can't wait to see what you do next.

Thanks so much guys, especially Kim for posting it. I still get embarrassed posting positive events for myself, so it's always good to have someone do it for me.

I'm going back up to see Sam Goodsell's portrait demonstration on Nov. 6th, it should be an eye-opener. Looking foward to the day where I know what I'm doing to give a demo of my own. If I had to give one today, the demo would take several hours which would include standing around, pacing, eating snacks, cursing, and crying, hahaha.

Very cool, Jimmie!

Ha, ha folks, I saw the original and this photo DOES NOT do it justice. It must have popped off the wall and grabbed the judge by the eyeballs!

Congratulations JIMMIE!
