I saw this piece last Sunday and I was so touched by the warmth and compassion that radiates from this portrait that tears came to eyes. I showed this to my husband and he agrees that this is a very special portrait in many ways. Your description of her is all what we can find in it. I do not think you could have demonstrate your friendship towards her in a better way than this. I am glad that such a good person will be remembered this way!

Oh, with your permission, I will feature it in my next journal.

Thank you for saying all those kind things about my friend's portrait. I still miss her dearly. I would feel honored if you would feature her portrait in your journal. Thank you so very very much.

You're very welcome I know the feeling; I lost my aunt not so long ago, she was a very good person to talk with, your portrait made me think of her. There was also another woman who was a friend of her who passed away two years before her... That friend too was such a gentle person to talk. I miss these women a lot, here where I live, everybody is very different from the people I used to know in the past.

Oh, I just added her in my journal along with another piece of yours.

This woman I knew was so special that I would go around saying I want to be just like "Mrs. Korn" when I grow up (I'm 48). It was meant to be funny but at the same time I meant it. She was like a ray of sunshine when she would walk into a room. I hope I am like that for the people I know in my life, I know that I try to be, I just hope that I am.

Wow, I like these kind of people very much, they're should be more like them.
I am sure that you are already like this yourself only by looking at
the way that you painted that beautiful portrait.

What a gorgeous portrait and a beautiful tribute to someone that obvious was special to you. Her personality really comes out in your rendering and that is a hard thing to accomplish.

Thank you for the compliment on Portrait of a Friend. She was one of the most brightest stars I have ever met. I miss her terribly. I have a small copy of the portrait on my mantle which I see every day. It is a nice way to think of her. Her family said I captured her essence which made me happy in return.

I think this is one of the best portraits I have painted so far. Thanks for the comment. When you really care about the person you are painting I think is shows in the end product.

An exquisite ode to an undoubtedly exquisite woman. You've portrayed that "warm you like the sun" essence to her marvellously.
