Hi Roger,

I am amazed at the quality of the
works of this lady artist, Jacqueline Jasper. Her portraits are simply awesome - a word I hardly ever use.

Hi Branka,

This portrait is so beautiful. It evidences the hand of a top-quality artist in the highest sense (I will try to learn more about him and his work)

Hugs,

Miguel

Miguel, I agree about Friedrich von Amerling's top artistic qualities.
I am just wondering how much we can learn while, practically, we play here :). This is just great!

And now what to tell about beauty and perfection of the works of this lady Jacqueline Jasper?
I didn't know for her :( . Fortunately, Google obeys, if only o'clock could follow it :).

Here is American Impressionist Frederick Carl Frieseke (1874-1939)




I don't know why, but all images that I post are resized, and I do not know how to change it .

Branka, to change the size of any image or re-size it do not change both dimensions but only one, preferably width, so that the other dimension will re-size automatically. But remember that in order to do so you will have to previously delete this other dimension (in this case height) lest the full image become disproporcionate.

Hugs,

Miguel
