Painting #3

I am very happy with my third painting. Not because of the subject, although she obviously has significant meaning for me, but because its a really good painting. I love the scale, composition, palette, the use of words/lettering and the tiling background. I see so much of my "designer-y" self in this painting. I thoroughly enjoyed the process of this piece and my instructor Leslie was great in helping me think about different options as as I was getting started. Lauren seemed to love it also.

Love it too -- Lauren looks fantastic (and I wish my eyebrows looked that good!)...What do the words/lettering mean?

The text is the same phrase in Latin (which Lauren knows), Greek and Vietnamese. The phrase is not important to the viewer -- only to me and Lauren. I did not tell Lauren what it said, but she could read it in the Latin.
