Didn't see the original Marjorie but I like this, has a hint of mystery.

Very impressionistic, Marjorie. The pose is just right and the light perfect.

I relate totally to this loose impressionistic style Marjorie. Nice work.

I love the light on the "original' Marjorie but this is even better!

Wonderful impressionistic painting, Marjorie, full of mystery. Anyone could find in it a story.

Great, enigmatic atmosphere and the pose of the woman evokes further curiosity Marjorie.

Definitely worth checking this one out, very well observed and understated. Brill.

Thanks a lot everyone.

Well now...this is more like it....a quick , free sketch? without fuss or finality and well worth displaying. I'll bet you one of yours against one of mine, that you thoroughly enjoyed the 'doing' as much as the achieving. Well done, Marjorie.

Beautiful light, Marjorie and I love the casual stance of the figure.

Many thanks Ellen, Heather and Roger. I enjoyed the re working, no pressure, it was the first attempt I found difficult - to keep it simple.

I do like this one Marjorie, the light has real impact with the silhouette. An idea worth developing!
