Kim, out of all the gorgeous paintings I have seen you do, THIS ONE is AMAZING to me! The mood and the 'feel' of this is so inspiring, (and I haven't done portraits in a LONG time) it makes me want to immediately break out my oils and get to painting! TRULY BEAUTIFUL!

Wow, what great responses! Thank you Mary & Jennifer!

You know I was only kidding about sending Linda a check, right? I can't possibly afford to pay all of you.

Kim,
Back from a two weeks vacation it is nice to see all the hard labor people have put into the art of art.

Your "Charity" turned out well, I like it very much and think it is one of your best. I like the frontal, symmetrical composition, that makes the small diversions, like the squinting eye and the movement of the hands, so much stronger.

I feel that you maybe are turning into a stronger way of expression, judging from the bold strokes and and the simplicity of the composition.

Thank you Allen for your nice comments!

I also appreciated the discussion we had privately about it as well and took your comments seriously. I didnt realize the Danish had to look up so many words, no wonder you type so slow.
