Final version: "A Good Book"



I have made a few subtle, but helpful I think, changes to this painting of my grand-daughter. I think I'm pretty happy with it now. I hope so, as it needs to dry and be framed to go to an exhibit shortly! Sometimes you need to stop, just because it's time to stop! And sometimes I need to stop because I'm afraid of where anymore changes will take me....

So. Done is done.
