Sharon,

I second what Marvin, Jimmie and Deladier said. Seeing it in person, as all your other large pastels must be exhilirating. Since I love dance and costumes I know I would love to see this. Someday when I'm in your area I will call you (my brother works in Boston every month for about a week and I'm going to come stay with him to do the galleries during one of his trips). Maybe you can point me to the nearest one then?

The wallpaper is nicely done but the hair and sash are just perfect - that orange punch. You need to feel very good about this!

Sincerely,

Denise

This is worth the wait (posting delay)! I'd love to see it in person, I like being overwhelmed.

Jean

This must be spectacular to see in person. This piece really showcases your affinity for the color schemes and pattern of Eastern art.

This is so impressive. I too wish I could see it in person!

Sharon,
Speaking of exquisite, both this piece and "Dakini" posted in this topic are exactly that. What a treat it would be to see them in person.
By the way, do you look as much in real life like Hillary Clinton as you do in your thumbnail image?

Sharon, I just spotted this. Congratulations on a stunning painting! I hope that conference attendees will post some photos which include this, so we get an idea as to scale.

You are a source of inspiration to me, so please, keep it up.

I'm back. I survived the conference and returned in one piece. More amazingly, I survived the drive around Boston with you Sharon. We had a blast. Thanks for the great Day. BTW, I bought a copy of the Bosonians. Wow! Thanks.

Marvin and Sharon--

Great seeing you at the conference, and Sharon, it was good to meet you finally face to face.

I got a brief look at the book over someone's shoulder there, but when I went to the museum and tried to find it, I couldn't. Can you post info--full title, author, etc.--so I can find it online?

Best as always--TE
