K oo L.....good likeness!

There's something of the young lady. A perfect likeness is for the camera, not the paintbrush. You must be having a splendid time in France. Our son is in Amiens and having a good time. . .we think. A bientot.

Artist Reply: Thank you David! Yes, we've had a great time here. I seem to have been painting non stop. Oh well! Perhaps it will make up for the fallow periods I get when I get back to Wales. We're gearing up for various family reunions this year and hope to go to Istanbul for a little while to visit my daughter then on to Hammamet in Tunisia to see the grandchildren. BTW, I must send you both the photos we took of the Ostension (Festival of Relics) here in Rochechouart. Only happens every 7 years. It was a wonderful procession. 1000 people took part. I see you're having a painting fest. They're wonderful! Keep going! Anyway, take care. Charleureusement de Rusty and SimonXXX

As in all your portraits a lot of life 'captured' here. Splendid use of colours AND to add to this a very good likeness.

Artist Reply: Thank you Ann! I appreciate your comments!
