Enzie, I just found your posts about your lovely girl painting. I know what you had gone through as I am still struggling with "boy in question" on the Critique section but I am trying to struggle on.
I just wanted to add that I saw your first post of this painting and I feel that the change was amazing and good choice with the beach background. Right or wrong, I know I have had clients ooh and ahhh and even tear up when they finally see the final piece. Whether it was perfect is of course always the question in my mind. As a matter of fact, almost always I feel that I could make changes and do better. Not to say that I was displeased with the finish --just that I always feel I could do better.

---I love it very much. I think the changes mentioned were needed with back ground, her back ,the addition of the dress,etc and I like the finished piece as does your client.
Went to your site and love your work.
Best Regards
