David,

I wrote about the painting here:http://forum.portraitartist.com/showthread.php?t=7130&goto=nextoldest
"The Young Shepherdess"is beautiful, too. Definitely another option to study in detail.

will start to look into where the painting is. I can't promise when we can go, because I have to get 2 commissions and one painting finished for the Laguna Festival of the Arts slide deadline. All these are due before the end of February and I am soooo behind.

Now that you have become "Speedy Gonazles" maybe you can share how to paint faster! ;)

HA!!! I wish. I was thinking about that yesterday...but I'm afraid my painting is still of the "slow as molasses" variety. For now, anyway.
