Thank you

Thank you Garth. I see what you mean about the temperature shifts I missed out on. It's amazing to me how these things seem so obvious when I step away from it - and see it against the reference the way you scaled it. I'm here to learn, and I have a long way to go. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your critique. I also appreciate people who are hard on me. Let 'er rip!

I love your work. From the overwhelming responses to your posts, it looks like I'm not alone. You have such honesty in your vision. That's the way I'd like to paint. Honestly. Right now, I tend to exaggerate (lighten the eyes, lips, etc.) when the truth is much more beautiful. It's like my mind whispers little white lies while I paint. I'm lucky to have found this forum. Perhaps it'll make an honest artist out of me.

Thanks again,
Sandra Jackson
