First critique

[Chris Saper]

Dear Linda,

I very much agree with your decision to start anew. I have SO often found that trying to make drawing adjustments at the eleventh hour is simply an exercise in frustration. It's a little like having to replace a sentence in a well-stated paragraph.

I have become very impassioned about making my fundamental choices early enough in the painting so that only small adjustments are needed at the end; and leaving those decisions that can ONLY be made at the end, to the end. Making the right decision AT THE RIGHT TIME makes all the difference in the world.

Your daughter is beautiful.

Best wishes, Chris
