2. Thank You..

In years of hearing/ reading explanation of Mon Lisa, I've not heard this level of detail. Thank you so much.

It was truly enlightening.

Didn’t expect it to end in a visual anatomy lesson, but delighted that it did, so interesting.

13. Glazes!

In art school we studied various types of producing artwork. I copied the Mona Lisa uses glazes (also Vermeer) and it was so easy. My teacher was so right. It's the only way to go for me.
