Oh! I like this very much, Rob. What are the dimensions? Joanne

Thank you. It's 8.5" x 5.75". I cropped it to move to the left; if you want I'll email the entire image.
I want to do Schiele all the time...it's sort of a problem.

I wouldn't say you're "doing" Schiele, I mean, there is an obvious kinship, but your line quality is all your own, and actually quite different from his. I think you are challenging yourself to work in other ways with your paintings, so don't worry...unless you are getting bored! J

Actually, not getting bored at all! I guess I have this notion/idea that carving something new, not obviously connected to another is the thing to strive for....so thanks for suggesting the "kinship" affiliation. I'd rather feel that than consider myself copying, so to speak.
