Hi Michele you have expressed expresion and light in your work which are essential to portraits

Michele, I love the down-to-earth integrity in your work. No editing, no pretense....just real and honest. I find it very appealing and beautiful.

Artist Reply: Thanks so much for the kind words. I was told by one of my instructors that my work was "technically exceptional, however I lacked the ability to infuse emotion." Your comments certainly helped balance (in my mind) his negative comments.

Wow! I think this is fantastic work...I even like your dismayed attitude...Thank Heavens For Honesty!!!
