Dear Sharon,

This is Beautiful! How big is this pastel? Ilove your use of light and the understated William Morris wallpaper pattern background.

Congratulations.

Well Sharon,

Since I missed this when you had it "up" you just have to repost it as soon as you can get the darn thing presentable - because I have been waiting to see your latest pastels!! Good to see you again here and I hope you and Marvin have fun at dinner next week at the convention. Wish I could be there!

Denise

The fastest way to see this now is to visit her in Boston. She is hanging at the Copley Society on 158 Newbury St.

It has taken me longer to figure out how to get a good post, than to do the darn thing.

I will work on it this weekend.

Maybe the next best bet to see this thing is to wait for the coffee table book!

Thanks for your interest, I am really touched.

She was (ahem) a BIG hit in Boston. She is hanging on a far wall and you can see her all the way across the street. Another silly reason to consider working large.

Hey Sharon,

Congratulations!

Thats exactly what I thought it looked like (The corrections I tried on your first post are nearly identical to your new post)! Really nice pastel! I am glad it's back, and am looking forward to seeing it in person on Thursday.

Garth

This is so beautiful! I only wish I could see it in person, I'm sure the size really makes a statement! What was this done on ?

Sharon,

What a spectacular piece! I love everything about it, not the least of which is your capacity to think, and act on such a scale.

Congratulations!
