Garth, thank you for sharing. What a beautiful painting and the close ups help to add to the strength.

Ever since I first saw your painting of the boy sunbathing I have been waiting patiently for more. I am not disappointed.

I have just brought to a close the face of a little boy with puppies that has similar lighting and down cast eyes. I must say that as much trouble as I have had I am glad to see yours worked out so well. I still have a lot of work to do but I thank you for the inspiration.

Again, a beautiful piece!
