Wow Tom!

There's a beautiful and subtle theme going on in this work. It's like a painting of an enchanted princess in an enchanted garden. Nothing is glaring or obtrusive, even the light. It makes me feel as if something (magical) is about to happen and she's sitting there waiting for it. Whether it is in her imagination or in reality, it doesn't matter.

Beautifully painted, too, as always!

It felt that way at the time, too. She was about four and a half or five. We delivered and hung it last weekend.

Thanks so much...I really value your comments!

Sweet and elegant, Tom! The white gown set upon the greenery is a rich and lovely setting of timeless appeal. Nice smile too.

Tom,
Up to your level of excellence as usual....the sort of piece the family would be proud to own.
Masterful work! Everything about it is exquisite.

Carlos, thanks! Hope it's got at least a little of the feeling for character that your work always has.
