Hi Fran, just finished your portrait
yesterday. Would be great if you could
see the original. I used a really soft
white pastel in the background that
has a nice sort of glow to it, but
it doesn't quite show in the pic as
brightly
Can't wait to start the next one!
Wish I could start a new one tomorrow
'cause I totally love having you in
my art!! You absolutely bring out the
best in me as an artist!
Talk to you soon
Btw the subtitle of the portrait
is (the colours of the world)
Hi Fran, just sent your
portrait off into
cyberspace to your
facebook page. Hope u
like it & look forward to

originals you haven't
seen yet! Have a lovely
weekend & talk to you

27th (Friday)
Finished off webpages, & sorting out ideas for
the portrait of Fran, titled 'Frangelica into
White'
28th (Saturday) [Frangelica into White]
Texted Reanne, 'It's freezing out there. Even I
have goosebumps today.' 'Hope u have heat in
the store.' [Nope I don't] [I'm frozen lol] [ ]
Showed Michelle prints, including the cover of
'Showers of Midnight Stardust' which she was
intrigued by. Said she loves that type of blue
sky you get at twilight. Was quite impressed
with the drawing of Hastings in the rain, with
the streetcars. Heavy rain this morning, that
left me with wet feet. Rain continued all day
& into the night. Some nice drama in the
basketball, Golden State/Okc
29th (Sunday) [Frangelica into White]
Sunny afternoon, toasty warm in the sun, cool
with a pleasant breeze in the shade

Texted Fran in the afternoon. She texted back
this evening, [Richard I'm so freaking
excited!! Let me know if you need any more
pics!!!! I should be home soon for a visit tho

Clouded over this afternoon

1st (Wednesday) [Frangelica into White]
Tea with Reanne at Revolver that began in
somewhat muggy weather, with a sprinkle of rain
beginning as we left 90 minutes later. Showed
me a remarkable series of statements that she
sent her X this morning, in one long text
message, in response to a text he had sent to
her earlier. Dark, quite heavy rain this evening
2nd (Thursday)
Work on webpage for the portrait. Killed a
spider for Joyce, upstairs at the Market
