Allan,
Your work keeps astounding me. I can't stop looking at this one. There are so many things I love about it: her wonderful expression, her face next to the red wall, the different color temperatures and light on her face, the brushstrokes and colors and expressiveness of the hair, the way the wispy ends of her hair mingle with her ear, the economical way you painted the roses. The whole painting is evocative of love--true, long-lasting love--not the least bit sappy or overly sentimental. Someday I have to meet her. That's the way this painting makes me feel.
