Linda, thanks so much! Imade a Holiday CArd with a quote for this image too, it is in my card gallery. Challenging myself with monotone studies is favorite fun for me.

Portraits in this manner focusing one one range of color with a dark background fascinate me Nancy. this one does just that. This homage to the Inuit tribe is wonderful. Great range of violets and blues here. F/L.
