    Exquisite, indeed! Incredible job on the delicate detail in the glass as well as the reflective surfaces. That ribbon is absolutely gorgeous and I love the way the color bounces all over the glass.

    yes Gwen, that is what has my jaw dropping way the cut glass picks up the color of the ribbon and the lip of the vase. Wonderful work.

    I love ribbons, I think this is so beautiful, as well. How you captured the subtle dimensions, amazing.

    Karen,
    Beautiful piece, Incredible fine detailing. I love the choice of color in the ribbon as well. It really enhances the clarity of the glass and the overall elegant feel of the painting.

    Karen,

    The cinderella quality of this painting is as enchanting as the end of the story. This could be a glass slipper.
