Clive,
I like how you captured her gentle expression. That chair turned out pretty cool as well.

I like the range of colors and the simple brush strokes. Nice job!

Very nice work, Clive! Beautifully rendered face with such a convincing expression, and so well executed generally. Lovely!

Thomasin,
I am deeply embarrassed by my incorrect reference..particularly as I majored in English Literature. i wish I could call upon artistic license as an excuse, but alas I fear it is encroaching old age. Thanks for the positive comments about the painting.

Very Nice Clive, I'm sure her family loves it. I like the composition, her expression, and the simple brush strokes too. Now I'm going to have to go take a look at "Primary Colors" to refresh my memory.

I didn't mean to embarrass you, Clive. I always, always have to look everything up on google or wikipedia before posting because I more often than not get things very wrong. I was convinced, previously, Woolf was spelled Woolfe! And I spelled Shelmerdine Shellmardine (from Woolf's book Orlando) in my post with my painting Self-portrait as Shelmerdine.
