Thanks Mike, Wendy and Tigertail! Really appreciate all the comments, even the environmental fact-checking! :D

As to your question, Mike, about my daughter's likeness...I don't think it particularly looks like her just yet and it may not end up being her. If she really wants it to look like her I may have to bust out the projector and trace it. My daughter has a strange relationship with my paintings. Being that she loves painting and drawing she is always initially fascinated and will sit on my lap as I begin a painting....then, more often than not, she get's a bit creeped out and will watch me paint from a distance. There have been a few paintings she's been afraid of (she's only 5 by the way). Lester Dines At The Mai Kai is one...she would walk by and kinda check it out from the corner of her eye. She is feeling a little the same about this one...and I guess it can be creepy to a 5 year old. So if she feels that way I may not want to add her likeness to it....we'll see.
