Girl in White dress.
I have thought about various titles for this painting but don't want to draw attention to any one thing. It is inspired by a faded antique picture of a girl I found and inscribed on the back, "from your chum". I am sad to report, though, that I never had the nerve to think this was good enough, so kept revising it and revising it until I totally ruined it and threw it away. Now looking at it from a couple years later, I really like it. This happens to all artists, I know. It's never "good enough."
