Fantastic! Great composition and incredible detail -- from the pattern of the dress to the screen door. Not to mention that it is a very nice portrait with great humanity. I can't say enough...

Realism is an understatement, amazing what you can do with watercolor, beautiful expression.

Amplification of details, details, details, and a subject who doesn't care about the material world. A mother(?) with heard and soul only left, and a nice dress - the waiting is her church, her life, her holidays, her everything. The time is erased -  moment and eternity.

Great work - a monument.
