    “Pygmalion”…and he loves her still.

    Ray, if he wills her to life, will she grow old?

    Thanks everyone. Sometimes it’s nice to to have a bit of fun with the paint.
    Rusty, in answer to your question, well, I suppose that’s the price we all pay for being alive, but as for the two characters in the picture are concerned, I think it will all end in tears.

    Ray, This is so much fun, its precious. She Is coming to life in this painting, isn’t she? Are those two champagne glasses he is holding? The striped pants will definitely make him an enchanting suitor. Hope he doesn’t have much longer to wait.

    Hi Gail, thank you. A rose in his pocket, a bottle of champagne and two flutes and yes, she is coming to life! Not sure how this happens or how it ends as I haven’t read the book. George Bernard Shaw, I think.

    mmmm, so nice Ray. I love those striped trousers of yours. Is she teasing him by chance?
