Its fantastic, really like it.

Another of your gems... Adebanji. Sensitive handling of the face, like the idea of it being small in scale, kind of adds an intimacy to the image. Effective lighting on the hair. I could go on. I think I just seem to like everything you produce... Looking forward to more on your return from Japan.

Yes Angela, I was just trying to work out the little dummy composition in my sketchbook when it started becoming interesting. So I just continued and it ended up like this. It had to be small but I didn't expect it to be this small. I'm having a really nice time in Japan!

Absolutely outstanding. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Thanks Jeannette! Wishing you a nice Christmas and a prosperous New Year too!
