    I saw the movie about the two sisters tortured relationship…enjoyed it very much…this is a wonderful evocative work Rachel..I really love the colours and the distressed background, with the halo of light around her…the contrast of the blues of her dress and the gold is stunning…

    The matter of fact i was thinking a lot how to….because she was one of my favorite Cellists, the way she use to play influenced me very much, i even try to emulate some of her etudes…..:-)
    She is a great loss to the world of music.
