“Don’t You Love the Night!”  12 x 18” / Watercolor & Ink on Acid-Free Strathmore Watercolor paper.
  
She was a very sweet and charming woman; an instructor in the healing arts, she understood subtlety, nuance, and the need for privacy, and, at times, isolation.       An adaptable individual, it was anyone’s guess what she would do next under any number of circumstances.         With that description you might suppose you have a good amount of information about this young woman, but you would be wrong.       She had a way of talking which gave the impression that she was an open book, which would make you feel comfortable, relaxed, and open to suggestion.        She just had a very good “bedside manner”, but she kept a respectable distance.       One would be able to have a good, deep conversation with her, as she was well versed in a number of topics, and knew how to express her opinions.       I took many photographs of her, and she was very patient, and helpful with suggestions.     
       A favorite portrait of the artist, it would be appropriate if this piece were to be in the possession of someone with an apprreciation for watercolor portraits, and depth of mind.
