Beautiful artistry! The background is just as impressive as the portrait itself! @palobeneforti, you are very talented! @richq11, you are fortunate to have received such a valuable gift; a gift worth more than just money. You are also fortunate in that you have the intelligence and heart to realize the worth of such a gift (many do not). I give my respect to both of you! < spreads out skirt and gives a deep curtsy>
