Colorful and fun! And I have to say, probably stating the obvious here, but you have this great ability to be loose and free with your brushwork on figures, yet they are always spot-on! Never an awkward arm that's bigger at the hand than at the shoulder, never just 'good enough' leg shapes... I am so inspired by you!

Gorgeous in every way.

I don't know how you get so much detail in without it looking too detailed! Sensational! That's truly the "little gem" part of your paintings.
Ahhh, I want to go read a book on the beach too! I really like how you give us a peek at the details.
