It truly is amazing and I know that everyone else in the family are going to be so touched. You have a very special gift and have such talent. I look forward to seeing you again in a few weeks.<BR/><BR/>Love, <BR/> Aunt FeliceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1659624246157087782.post-33408729233969857322008-11-29T08:52:00.000-06:002008-11-29T08:52:00.000-06:00Teresa,Thanks so much for your comments and encour...<B>Teresa,</B><BR/>Thanks so much for your comments and encouragement. I've worked some more on Teddy's mother, refining the shape of her face. It was a little off around the chin area. I just couldn't move forward until I was satisfied. I still expect to darken her a little more to push her into the background. <BR/><BR/>today is a drawing day...hope to have an update to post later.Marsha Robinetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955149356250296578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1659624246157087782.post-5307851532516840552008-11-26T15:38:00.000-06:002008-11-26T15:38:00.000-06:00Hi Marsha,I agree with Angela, this will be such a...Hi Marsha,<BR/>I agree with Angela, this will be such a meaningful gift for your grandson.<BR/>You have such a wonderful reference photo of Teddy to work from.
