I shouldn't have said this here and blame it on that extra G and T and a long day.
The 'wetness' of the scene is masterly. I have learnt a lot from this picture and also hopefully better manners to simply praise a lovely work.

You have absolutely NOTHING to apologize for Margaretta. There was nothing negative about your critique nor anyone else's that I saw. For my part I relish good critiques. Critiques are about growing and learning and I get something from each one. Just because I painted it doesn't mean it is perfection and I take no offence to honest commentary. One honest critique is worth 1,000 atta boys.
