Thank you. This painting was in an exibition at the 809 Gallery, La Grange, Georgia, in August/September 2009. Unfortunatly, it got lost or was stolen in the mail on route back to me in England, so it's a lost painting. I often wonder if it is still out there or has been distroyed.

Hi

I have featured this deviation in my journal as a thumbnail because I like it and want my watchers to see it.

If you object to your work being displayed in this manor - I have every respect for you and will remove it as soon as I receive a note from you asking me to remove it.

Keep up the really great work.

Andy

Thank you Chris, I went for texture on this one. Unfortunately the camera image doesn't quite pick that up. But then I'm not a photographer, lol.

I've always found that it's a lot harder to take shots of oils than it is to snap watercolours, that's for sure. Absolutely gorgeous, though.

Thank you so much. It's not that I haven't got a good camera Canon EOS 400. But I've noticed certain paintings don't photograph well and others look great on film - a bit like people I suppose, lol.

I like to think I look just a bit better in person than on film, myself.

Thanx. It's one of my favorites. I almost sold it once but really, the person who wanted to buy it was offering far too little. I couldn't let it go for practically nothing. Every time I look at the painting now I count it has his loss.

Thanks. I did the painting over a year ago and as I recall I painted very thickly to gain texture.

Everyone comments on the texture. I painted it on thick in oils. I guess she does look sad.
