Hi Fifi,

To sit on the little pink chair looking out at the Eiffle tower, would be lovely.
I love your painting.

Oh My Gosh, I haven't heard those words used, "now if only I could paint myself into the painting" . . . . how many times I've wished it though. . . yep, you got that right! :)
I love what you did - turning the picture into colors - beautiful. You are so talented. Blessings, Janet
