Well, I missed this the first time out. I have a good excuse: I'm in the middle of a painting (okay it's a l**dscape, shh!).

As if I could add to all the well-deserved praise for this effort...! I could give you my first impression: love the too-big shoes! I have a 7 year-old who is always dressing up with friends, and the attitudes and postures of these girls are spot on. I've been witness to this kind of scene so often lately, so I can attest to the accuracy.

The wonderful feel of this painting could not be achieved without your masterful application of paint. I'm learning so much about edgework and softening of detail from observing your stuff, Garth. My sincere thanks to you for sharing it.
