Good times my friend.<BR/>You have also somewhat inspired me to get off my behind and try to do some art. That, and you have one more kid than I do, so I really need to get in gear!<BR/>Miss you, Minnie D.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13823520025009118738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5115487062428539188.post-17917882036995256762008-08-01T13:19:00.000-06:002008-08-01T13:19:00.000-06:00I remember you wearing that necklace!

It's a portrait of you, to be sure, but your commentary about frustrations made me put a little of myself in the picture. How many times do I feel that a figurative, perfect symbol of womanhood looms over me, and that I just don't measure up? And I realize that I sometimes "dress up" the unattainable with my own expectations. The necklace is on the statue, not you.<BR/><BR/>Great painting.<BR/><BR/>Jennifer HatchJenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525034596178639693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5115487062428539188.post-28900705129768315892008-07-31T20:23:00.000-06:002008-07-31T20:23:00.000-06:00I'm so impressed you get into that show every year...I'm so impressed you get into that show every year. It's so competitive! This painting has so much emotion. I can relate to the feeling, and can definitely tell it is you, but in real life you look much happier. : )BrittanyLanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07830667400656033725noreply@blogger.com
