Thank you Chris, Patricia and Mike. Mike, I might have to check my head with oversized baggage since I can't get it into the overhead compartment on those planes.

And by the way I'm finally remembering to post a closeup of the hands:
You should post this image in the thread "show of hands"! They are a show!!

Linda, since you first posted this this beautiful painting it has become a resource for me. Just to see how you accomplished the beautiful hair and skin - well, everything about the painting - is inspiring. Wonderfully deserved recognition. Now, that's justice.

Can I name drop now that you're so famous?

Jean, Beth, Claudemir, Carol and Ngaire, you are all very kind to post these comments, which are so encouraging to me. Thank you!

Beth, I think my big head problem may resolve itself because I pounded it against the wall all week over a painting I've been struggling with. I think I've got it compacted back to its original size by now.

Man, I'm so asleep at the wheel, that I took out a Hummer and a state trooper before I woke up and saw this!

Linda! Whoa! This is awesome. Jimmie and I are on the same page in that this is my favorite Linda Brandon piece, period. Accolades will continue, the more this is exposed to the public - and deservedly so!

Huge congratulations and warm wishes to you! You deserve a limo ride to Washington for this one.
