Anna,

That is a wonderful head. Isn't Tony a great guy? I'm sure he is very proud of you. You have a great future.

I show in Santa Fe with Nedra Matteucci on Paseo de Peralta. When you're there in January, stop in and say hello to them and poke around. They often have some great old stuff stashed in corners. Last time I was there, Nedra had a couple of wonderful Nicholai Fechin drawings in her office.

Terri, Bonfim and Bill: Thank you for the welcome. Yes, Tony is great and I enjoyed his classes a lot!

Bill, I will definitely check out your gallery in Santa Fe. It would be inspiring to see your work in person!

Anna

Dear Anna,

Welcome and congratulations on your scholarship and studies! I can see you are really flourishing! Your "Esodie" and "Charlotte" are hauntingly unforgettable portrait images, among others; the former being rock-solid and powerful in it's painting technique and vision. Her color just sings!

I feel you are among our real assets and look forward to your contributions and participation here.

Best wishes for your continued success,

Garth

Garth,

I have really enjoyed your paintings that I've come across in my exploration of the forum. I admire your work very much!

Anna

Exquisite solid work.

You will be an inspiration to us all. Welcome, welcome, welcome!

Wow! your work is stunning. I hope to learn LOTS from you! Welcome.

Sharon and Mary, thank you so much!

I'm going to post something soon on the Works in Progress thread, but I want to make a little more progress on it first.
