What a gorgeous painting Laurie! I think she would work very well for a visual rendition of "Little Women" or "Gone With the Wind" (she'd make a great Scarlet!).......not sure about "Mom's and Dads" :) You know, I ran across the link you provided and was wondering if Lyn's work was as good as it looked. I will definitely go back now that I have a "reference" :) I too am an "animal" person......keep looking for a good domestic cat....no luck so far! :) I will most likely get Poser at some point not too far down the road........but I better learn Vue first :) I'm going to check out the swan.........will most likely provide some incentive to spend more of my money :) Sandy
