i’m amazed the way they express
00Bb00
as “they” stands for the characters of these imagined emotional worlds. The expression on her face here is more important, than the mask, that’s for sure.
danita clark
lovely ! evoking emotion and mystery
maxy
This is another that really flows so beautifully! She has such an expression of mystery here… Outstanding!

Not a single disappointment among your paintings. Each one is more brilliant than the next. Your light swirls and misty strokes help us to feel those wonderful delicate fabrics that surround your subjects. This is beautiful!!
