Terri,
I am positively blown away by this painting. Each one is more and more wonderful. But this one is MAGIC!!! The boy's expression is precious and the trombone is BEAUTIFUL! I know you were concerned about painting it and it turned out so beautifully. My son is a professional trombonist and I am going to send it to him. He will really appreciate the image!!

You are going places, GIRL and I can say I knew you when!!

Pat

ps what people who don't play the trombone wouldn't notice is that you have even captured the slight swelling of the upper lip which most trombonist, even young ones have after they have been playing. Is it my imagination or did you notice this about his mouth when you were studying him.
