Someone thought Ingrid was Ingmar, yes. A visit from the green fairy on Friday evening or just havin trouble with foreign names?

These are perfect portraits. I don’t know the art of paying my homage in words. These portraits have left permanent impressions on my mind and I shall see them again and again and admire them from fresh as if I have seen them for the first time.
