Karin,
Does the 19th century know where you are? 
Your mastery of light excels with each new work! (This must have been a hold-over before your health concerns?) When I see the size of the piece I'm in awe. It surely must be breath-taking in person.
I hope you realize you're leaving very little for the rest of us to achieve.

OOOOH! AAAAH!
Dear Karin....Absolutely breathtaking! The lighting, the fabric, the exquisite tenderness between mother and child, the background, the SIZE! Whew! Makes my arms tired just thinking about having to cover a canvas that size! I agree with David's reference to another era...are we in the Twilight Zone, and you've come to us from the 1800's? I would advise to keep up the good work, but...um...well....I don't think you're capable of anything else but!!!
Very sincerely, Meredith
PS. I don't know if this is against protocol here, but I would love your input on my first submission for critique....it's called MaryLynn in Pastel. Thanks!

Oh, Karin, what a visual thrill to see this work. I only wish I could see the original.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful image...we would love to see some details if you have them at hand.

Beautiful Karin! I can almost feel the whisper kiss of the mother on the daughter's cheek.

Exquisite painting, Karin
The subtlety, the atmosphere, the play of cool and warm colors, the conservation of values. A masterful work!

This is so lovely! I especially admire the slow slide of the ribbon up to the mother's elegant neck. The muted color scheme is very effective. I have to ask, what is the mother holding in her hand?
Congratulations on an excellent painting!
Linda

Very lovely! The curve of the mother's neck is beautiful and the dresses and ribbon have such a nice airy quality. The whole painting is very grand and feminine.
