Garth,
What a great piece. The impromptu nature makes it come to life.
It's simply beautiful.

Well Garth, now that you have posted an improved image, I realize that this painting has numerous flaws and believe you should give up painting.

Sorry Garth, that was my doppleganger. Tomorrow marks a year since you've joined SOG, and we've all been lucky to have you here. I'm not a portrait painter stalker, just noticed it was the Ides of March on the profile.

ps. did you get my PM about philly?

You know Jimmie, I was thinking the very same thing!

Thanks! It has just occurred to me that a year has gone by,,,,, What a great one though! This Forum has really opened up a whole new world of friends, contacts, and above all, inspiration!

Hello Garth!

Since my move back to my hometown in California I haven't had a whole lot of time to peruse the posts in the last few weeks. But, I'm telling ya right now that this image is like a soothing balm to my tired old eyes. So wonderful to behold. Thanks my friend!

Your colors and tones are so smooth and supple. The illusion of reality is as if the viewer can almost hear the rustling of the organza material in this touching scene. Supreme workmanship Garth.

Thanks so much Geary!

Gosh! Just for the record, I did not pay you to say any of those complimentary kind words which I sincerely appreciate. Actually, my friend, I am at a loss of words to properly thank you! Even in a small way, I am glad to be a help and remedy.

Garth

Hi Garth, (what a great name!)

Thanks so much! Kids that age certainly are just bounding with energy, aren't they?
