Thanks Chris,

Sigh of relief! I have literally taken thousands of pictures of Lexie over the past several months as I tried to apply everything I have learned about a good resource photo (she is my only cooperative subject.) I really liked this one and studied it a long time before posting it here because I wanted to make the decision, on my own that this was a good one to work from. I feel good about it being a wonderful photo but reading the word from you means more than you can imagine. This stuff may actually be sinking in for me.

Thanks, you made my day.

Janel

It is a terrific reference photo and I'm sure you will make an even more terrific painting from it. I look forward to seeing the results.

Michelle,

In your words "terrific" I now have two thumbs up. Your opinion also means a lot.

Well, this is has been good enough for me.........I am using it. You can view the progress of "Lexie take 2" in the oil painting critique section.

Thank you,

Janel
