Like this a lot Linda

Many thanks for you prompt response, Heather.

Excellent Linda. The folds in the fabric must have taken so much patience; really well-done.

This is great, Linda. So well done!

Excellent Linda...and those folds are great (I'd have lost my way in them).

Beautiful CP work. The gown must have taken you ages and lots patience Linda. Lovely work.

Nice work Linda; patient and proportionally accurate. I think maybe you need to lighten the lip colour a little.

Linda is this not Proserpine by Rossetti? Great work though!

Good colour scheme and work on the folds.

Beautiful work Linda, I like the way it works on blue paper and that gown is amzing.

Excellent Linda, especially all those folds in the fabric.

Superb Linda!

I stand corrected. The original is by Dante Rossetti. Yes, the folds did drive me mad and I did loose my way a few times. I think this is Elizabeth Siddal, but no doubt you all know that. Thank you all so much for your kind comments.

Terrific work.

Really good,

Interesting work, Linda. (This is actually Jane Morris, wife of William Morris - she features in a lot of Rossetti’s work.)

You have done a super job of this Linda. Great colours.

I stand corrected again - Jane Morris. Thank you .Jenny for this information. Thanks too, Chris, Alan, David and Spencer for taking the time to comment.

Many hanks Maureen.

Perhaps hanks of Thanks would have been better!
