This turned out Spectacularly well! (now you know why there aren't a lot of "Pointillists" around)

It was definitely worth it but it must have taken you quite a while to finish it. I admire your work.

Oh my word ....fabulous but yes...life is too short :)

Wow Marilyn - what a stunner (picture and little girl!). Well done for trying something different but I can understand it took forever!

Wow Marilyn, this must have taken an age to do! It is very effective though and what a gorgeous child she is. Well done indeed for having the patience and the skill to complete it!
