I remember seeing this at AGRA – striking work, well done Roz. Wasn’t it a wonderful exhibition?! I didn’t manage to score any points but did sell a large acrylic (the only painting that sold, which is amazing seeing there were so many incredible works there!) Love your work and looking forward to seeing more :-)

SEE THIS IS TECHNICALLY BRILLIANT BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY IT HAS THE POWER TO DRAW ONE INTO THE PRESENCE + MOODINESS OF THE SUBJECT AND TO CAUSE THE OBSERVER TO PONDER THEIR OWN STATE OF BEING. INSPIRING !!
Roz McQuillan replied
Hey, thanks, Ray, guess an artist couldn’t really ask for more than to elicit this response!
