Anne, you did a great job of capturing this very interesting sculpture -- especially with the painting in the BG.

The thumbnail had me wondering-- the larger image is wonderful, Rose, enhanced with texas---and the painter is right to make her mostly yellow!
(Yellow Rose of Texas.......)

Stunning composition, creating a fascinating relationship between the two faces; stunning colour too. I covet this. I'm now in depression because it's so far away.

A perfectly balanced image, focused in precisely the right spot and with the planes well separated. The background face looks sinister: as it is defocused its intentions are unclear, increasing the tension in the composition. Excellent.

The tension between the two figures makes this into much more than a photograph of an art work. You have turned it into a very fine visual statement.

I was browsing my favourites on EPZ on my iPhone whilst out for lunch and waiting of it arriving, and this really stood out in the thumbnails! An amazing piece of work, and beautifully captured, Anne Wink

how well you composed this - I don't normally care much for pictures of art- but the way you did it there is a new context it is as if the sculpture is turning on the portrait watching her!

No idea what Sheryl is trying to say with this as I can see no connection between the subject and its title, the Yellow Rose of Texas? or an elaborate spoof on that? Nicely taken by you anyhow Anne,
