Thanks, Dawn. He's very special and very stately to me, too. You would laugh if you knew how much "attitude" they gave me during their creation -- just like I imagine they would do during a tailor fitting or something of that ilk. Washington was reputed to be extremely fastidious about his clothes, etc. -- and I have felt it!! But I adore him. Can't you see the "stately" attitude in his slightly upward glance? I didn't plan that. It just happened!!

Yes, he does have attitude behind his eyes, it's fantastic when things occur suddenly like that.
I enjoy your blog.
