Sharon, what a beautiful head, well-drawn and oh, those colors!

I love those hues and how you have mingled them in her hair. Reminds me of an Easter basket.

What a delight! I used to sneer at him (Fragonard) too, but this makes me want to look again, with freshened vision. This is wonderful.

I'm just all for "joy" etc., So, how can you lose? ('bout the only thing Hogarth did that I like is "Shrimp Girl" . . . she looks joyful.)

Scrumptious Sharon, what a gorgeous orchestra of bright colours.
It makes me think at Amadeus, when the Emperor (King, Landgraf, Prince?) criticizes the his opera because it has "too many notes". Mozart, too many notes ?
