Re: patti

Bill, Very Beautiful, gives me the impression of a life size painting, I was surprised to see it was an 8X10. Love the colors and brushstrokes.

Re: patti

Absolutely outstanding!! The movement and composition are especially wonderful. I can't believe this is "only" an 8x10 - it looks a lot bigger than that!

Re: patti

Nancy is certainly right there...it has a much larger canvas feel to it.

Wonderful Bill...!!!!!!!

Lovely portrait, Bill. Sensitively portrayed, nice and loose.

I give credit to Carolyn Anderson for this one. I was really trying to recall her teaching.

Re: patti

Bill - I think you succeeded in incorporating Carolyn's teaching, but with your own signature style as well.

One thing I'm finding out is the simpler the better with women, they look prettier.
