Thank you all! The WOWs were unexpected--I like the "free-flowing but solidly expressed" description, Pat--it looked a little amorphous to me, but now that I look at it again, it's not too bad.
Julie, some day you can show me some tricks with pastels.
It was just luck and good connections (friends who have their ears to the ground) that led me to this place. We just made some noise about wanting to find an open studio or start one, and pretty soon we found this one. So, David, just start asking around.
Allan, it took me a while to realize you were taking about those red strokes on the side of his face! It really does look like I gave him a big smooch. Maybe if I sign it the regular way, I can shift the focal point (Ha-Ha).
And, Sharon, if I had brought my new French easel I, too, would have been still looking for the yellow ochre. I tried to practice setting it up beforehand and realized that I'd better leave it home unless I wanted to spend the entire first hour trying to keep the drawer from sliding open and spilling all my paints while I got the legs up.
