Debra,

How do you do that? WOW! You must go into some kind of intense concentration "zone" that helps you to make such a masterfully executed piece in a mere 2 and a half hours. Of course, I know that it's not a mere "trance". You have studied and work from life often. You are committed to your art. Every piece you post gets stronger.

I am just in awe. A lot of others might work just as hard as you do, but never reach your level of excellence (that's where the talent kicks in). This portrait sparkles. Every stroke counts. You are obviously fearless. Bravo Debra. My hat's off to you!
