Dear Garth,
I will have to get onto threads earlier, since I am at a loss to come up with new adjectives. This portrait is really extraordinary. Bravo!

Wow!!!
Garth,
I am speechless! And amazed! What a beautiful and sensitive portrait. I can't imagine how you did that! I hope you'll share something about your technique. I'm 'stuck' on warm and cool theory right now, I certainly would love to hear anything you have to offer about how you handle warm and cool tones to get such . . . such real looking breathing people!
Thank you,
Joan

Garth, this is so beautifully done that it is hard to believe it's a painting till you look very close. She is breathing! Her clothing is a lovely compiment to her face and hair and is so soft. I like everything about this portrait, and will study it often to learn as much as I can from it.
Jean

OMG,
I know that we are not supposed to use anachronyms or abbreviations, etc. but OMG is all I can say - this is all of the above (especially Linda Brandon's statements!) and more. I love the colors, the dog is absolutely precious and the woman elegantly handled. I hope I can make my mom look this fabulous as I try to paint her very soon.
What a treat to see this beautiful painting, Garth!
