Grethe, thank you so much. I admit it was an ambitious composition. I could picture it in my mind from the start, and the perspective was not too challenging, but I think the most challenging part was pulling it all together, thinking about degrees of detail of the different parts in relation to one another, and how each decision I made affected the way the attention was focused (or not) on the subject. And I don't want to downplay the help I received from members of this Forum in the WIP section.

A really wonderful piece! You have such a lovely clear, warm light, Alex and such a real sense of space around the figure. I also really enjoy the shadows you've created so convincingly. And such competent, rigorous marks, but at the same time so relaxed and happy. Super work, Alex. I hope you'll get some time to rest in between all the other prestigious commissions and award receptions this is sure to bring!
