There is no question in my mind that the magic in this comes from your affection for the subject. It's funny how your love and understanding of whatever is before your canvas seems to come through. Your last sentence was very touching. Very well done here, I'm sure your son is proud.<BR/>be good,<BR/>ToddTodd Bonitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106002893113309433noreply@blogger.com
