At this point in a long list of wonderful comments mine will probably not mean much but I feel compelled to say that this is my absolute favorite of yours because I can see YOU in this! I love the treatment of the hair, the fact I can see painterly strokes of the brush (well placed and thoughtful), and the background. To me Garth, this one has the artist singing beautifully throughout and I congratulate you on a knockout painting of a lovely woman. You brought me out of a crushing amount of work with this one. Back to work. Terrific portrait. Keep singing.
