Beautiful, Sharon
 

I keep trying to imagine these the size of my fireplace. They must be truly impressive in person.

Sharon,

Once again, I have to say that these works are simply stunning. As Mari and others have noted, the impact of these vibrant pieces is, doubtless, made even more so by their sheer scale. I so wish that I could stand before them in person. We've all experienced the way viewing beautiful art work sends a visceral thrill throughout our bodies. I've not been to a museum in a while, and I'm dying to do so when I make a trip to Washington, D.C. next month.

Mega-Kudos, Sharon!

You said that each piece took an average of three to four months to complete. I certainly believe it. Did you restrict your efforts to them exclusively, or did you also work portrait commissions during that time?

Certainly, there are shows and galleries that would be thrilled to display these works. Perhaps the East Coast Art Establishment is still, by and large, a rather hostile environment for art that employs beauty, heart and obvious skill. But what about points west? Specifically, I was wondering about certain parts of the southwest. Everything does not have to be cowboys and Indian maidens to be enthusiatically received there. In any event, I am confident that these art jewels will soon find a fitting exhibit space.

Sharon, you might want to think about showing them to the Frye Museum in Seattle whenever you're ready. They are dedicated to traditional realism.

Okay, whose husband is not getting dinner now? ;)

This is so beautiful! I especially love the way you used your colours in this piece. Such an inspirational piece or art!

Breathtaking
 

These are absolutely breathtaking, I adore painting ballerinas I can only hope to one day be half as good as this
