Kim,
I never know how you are going to surprise us when I click on a new painting of yours. This is really serious stuff--amazingly good technically and as a composition and as a powerful image. Again, there is the interplay of title and image that raises more questions than it answers. There's a mystery in the creation of this that goes beyond the sum of the parts. Self-portrait, obviously. It is just plain wonderful!

Kim,
You are unabashedly good! I love this one of yours - I love the red theme, how it frames the figure so well, and the balance of cool tones in the figure - the perfect compliment to the bold use of reds...outstanding!

Makes me want to come up with a Rett Butler quote, but I can't think of any right now. Someone help me...
This is beautiful and tells a delicious story - very cool!

This is so hot! This is one portrait that has nothing wrong with the mouth. Great job, Kim. I have one question, how do you hold that pose and paint at the same time????

Jean, well it was hard let me tell you...with the pulleys and wires and all.

Kim,
No staid ole self portraits for you girl! You are building quite a legacy. Love the composition and how you handled the drapery. I don't know how you manage to keep getting better, but you do.
