John,

I am telling the truth when I say I love this copy. She is both sedate and moody and you have painted, in my opinion, a wonderfully crafted copy. I am very impressed with the color and lost edges.

I have the Girl with the Pearl as my screensaver, and am not quite ready to replace it with your copy.......yet!

Thanks for the notes, which I will refer to if I decide to do a copy someday. You should hang it in a beautiful frame somewhere special.

Sincerely,
Denise
