Thank you, ! if this inspires you to get to work, well, that is great. We all need to get off the computer and get to work, including myself.
Linda, thank you so much for saying those lovely things about the painting in real life! That was a fun afternoon hanging out with Garth in the studio. I forgot that you mentioned having played the harp. My daughter also played for about 6 or 7 years but we could never afford one of those big ones, so she kind of stagnated on the Celtic harp and eventually gave it up. I miss hearing it in our house. It has such a sweet, full sound. I bet you played better than you are letting on.
Janet, I really appreciated your support during the WIP and now--thanks a bunch! I can't get over how impressive your portrait looks.
