    hi selkie… surprise !!!!!

    i couldn’t wait… i’m one of the most impatient person and painter i know… yet the most patient one with certain things…. : )
    yesterday, i picked up a few canvases on the way to my work and did it towards the end of the class (i own art school for kids)... took about 40 minutes… wanted to work on it a little bit more, but ran out of time (ramon who manages the school for me had to leave right on time and i did not want to lock up)... i may sometime in future go back and touch up a bit…. hope you like it, selkie… : )

    What can i say? This is just so incredibly beautiful, Mimi. I am so honoured that you painted this – you made me look beautiful! You are such a unique talent. I’ve been painted before, but never like this.
    This is my favourite by far of the portraits that have been done of me.
    You are a treasure.
    xoxo
