Thanks for the compliment Julie. I have been walking past my painting to and fro over the last couple of days, and that nagging feeling i had about the left figure grew, and what you said confirms it all. I think i'll have to leave it aside until i come back from my overseas assignment. I'm gonna try work on toning down the figure...in fact, now that you mentioned it, i just remembered that my initial value sketches did mean for that fella to be in the darker tones instead of what was being shown here! That's right...so good of you to mention it here, Julie. Thanks a lot!
