  7. WONDERFUL to view your "return" - I, too, have been on a doldrum break all summer. As you know, we cannot fein joy in something that has become stale. I am enjoying your blog again - the nudes are eye candy!

  8. I like your impressionistic style and feel of life in this painting.
    Blogging becomes less passionate and less addicting to me, yet I think it is still the best place to show my works. Looks like this wave of indifference covers a lot of my blogging friends.

  10. A real woman. Most impressionists seem to paint skinny girls.
