Tom, you are to me the complete portrait pro, and I always treasure your compliments, thank you!

Richard, I really appreciate your kind support and I'd love to see you at an open studio session one of these days.

Terri, if I could paint those elegantly subtle transitions found in your paintings, I wouldn't be splashing all this paint around.

Patricia, you have such a fine and sensitive eye in your own work - thank you for your post.

Can you share what sort of palette & set-up you take with you to open studio?

I second that. It's not fair - I couldn't do that in 30 hours. This is SOooo good.

Linda, is such a joy to see your work, and what work!
And this is so...you, lips included!
I am most of all speechles for your speed: if you'd see where I am after three hours! I'd have barely filled in the biggest areas, I think!
Looking forward to see the other work

I third that! O no dear Linda, I don't mean I hate you, I mean this is a gorgeous accomplishment. The transitions are wonderful. Congratulations!

Garth

Linda, you are Awesome! x 10

I can see your inspiration as you were presented with this challenge. It seems to me that You love a good challenge. Understanding the basic principles of painting and using them is the foundation, as you so nicely pointed out. After that it is to match the shapes and hue at proper value. You have done all that and wallah! A wonderful luscious portrait study.

Linda, thank you for reminding me and sharing with us!
