Daniel, Gerry, Nick, Kevin,
Thanks for the kind words guys.
Gerry, you hit the mark with your comment that we are all perfectionists. I can't control myself if I am looking at one of my pieces and I am not entirely satisfied with it. I find myself re-looking at things I have done a year or two earlier and making changes as my painting style and skills evolve. There are some who argue that you should not go back on old figures but just push new ones out. I think there is a happy balance between the two.
Penny Meyer put up a very nice slide show on Facebook of the flats and paintings at the MFCA show. She has a magnifier option that allows you to enlarge the photos. The picture of the lady with the fan by Amalia Rutuerto is amazing because even blown up, the painting is almost perfect.
