Hi Dee, it's great to see the Alsace set again, you really did a fantastic job here

Beautiful and touching scene! We need more acts of kindness in this world! Hugs sweetie! Favorite!

That moment when he realizes this is the same girl he saw walking into Karate class yesterday.....

A fun and beautifully done scene, Dee!

I'm picking up where I left off, and I'll try to comment on as many as I can. (Not easy, given how long my comments are, lol) I can't usually comment on everything I miss, because of time; so please know that I see everything you post, and if I could comment on everything, I would.

One of the things I love about your work is your totality of scene. In your most recent upload (the cookie thief), you used that birdcage motif for lamps and the chair, and then wonderful angles on the walls, and that shocking pink on the trees outside, and so on. One can think you're a designer. Here, you use Tudor-influenced architecture, with beautiful colors and layout, a big beautiful courtyard and a receding street on the far right...it frames your image beautifully. In front of this (and that beautiful algae-covered fountain), you have two very modern people, the woman in a beautifully chosen and put-together outfit, and a guy in a casual outfit by comparison (w/ the ripped jeans, great sneakers, etc). And they make a great contrast to your background, and fit in beautifully. Love the long offering of the flower, and the woman's shocked/enticed expression (her tongue tells us that!). And he's composed so well with the lines of the upper fountain, and her head in the recess of the buildings...Beautiful piece, and you have a real way with clothes and posing...and two very different skin tones in these two, as well. Two very different people coming together in a moment. Beautiful.
