Nia, I am very touched that my photo inspired you in your own work. Surely there can be no greater compliment. Your painting differs from mine a bit. Yours has your natural warmth, gentleness and kindness, my photo has a tension between the the sunny foreground and content? birds in the foreground and menacing harsh steelworks in the background. I feel that the foreground worked out really well, but the background does not have the harshness of the photo. I do not know whether this is worth doing, or whether you wish to give your photo different feel and different meaning. Again, thank you for using my photo as a starting point to your work. I am very honored.
