New, Very Large Challenge

[Carol Norton]

Richard, you may not know how kind your response was. Your encouragement was so appreciated. I am struggling with posting the painting from my new Mac. Expecting the photo of the painting to be a part of the thread, imagine my chagrin when the post appeared WITHOUT the painting!

There is a second and equally gigantic portrait due of the same gentleman in all of his auto racing regalia. Felt better about the first one after the canvas had some paint on it, so my next step (besides designing the collage of man and his various cars over the years) is to do something I KNOW I can do. KISS. I tell myself to "Keep It Simple...Sweetheart." TONE THE CANVAS!!!

I DO appreciate your encouragement and I will continue to work on posting the painting. Had very little trouble the first and last time I posted from this new computer and the new iPhoto and Photoshop Elements , but this time....duhhhhh. No idea why it didn't work.
