I worked for three hours last night and painted two doll mouths, and that's about it. I also enhanced a doll from my own collection whose factory paint was flawed. Three hours for lips only seems like a lot of time, but I guess I'm just not a quick worker. If I try to hurry, mistakes get by. Later today I'll work on brows and eyes. I altered the hairline on one doll who was taking on a Queen Elizabeth I appearance, and I sent a pic to Anne, who criticized it: "I like the part, but doesn't the new hairline make her jaw look square?" But if I hadn't changed the hairline she'd carp about that. She also has a tendency to be a know-it-all (people who know everything bug me beyond reason). Really gonna have to cut back on that association.

There is a fine line one treads when giving criticism. Some folks just don't know when to quit. Some don't know how to give it at all. Unfortunately, there are a lot of folks out there who don't know how to give praise either. Particularly not where it's needed most. Sad, but true. Personally, I've not seen a lot of your work, but what I've seen was very nice! Bugger the critics!
