Fantastic! I love the painting and the composition, especially the colors and the way the light fades into shadow in the top of the background.

Thanks for the comments. Was a good exercise in using the power of the cads when approaching the lights. Haha dencal & i used a 1 1/2" brush for the majority. Still amazes me the realism achieved in this method & have come to understand the importance of values.
