Sergio,

This has a silvery, luminous quality that does come through in the image. I know how frustrating it is to not be able to capture the quality of the original--my work never looks that good in reproductions no matter how hard I try--but I think this work has a powerful "magic" quality that shows up in the photos. It is a work that bears looking at more than once to really grasp all its subtleties. Beautiful!

Alex

Good Morning Tricia,

Saw your pastels and think there is a huge potential in them!
Hope Australia and the old masters gives you a lot of inspiration

Sergio

as what for the details: it is a matter of patience and special food regime...
