More I think about it more I think it's broken (maybe because of painting technique?) (that is why she posted new picture - and she says that nowhere she said it was a clue - maybe she gave up on this but it's bad PR to said that people have followed broken puzzle for 3 years).
There isn't no single point to catch first, even 1flamen6 is no good. I'm quite annoyed and tired, probably like a lot of people before me.
If it will not be solved I hope she will leave solution in her last will (I wish her long and happy life, don't get me wrong!

)
That is all for now, I'm going to bed. I have already trouble in work because of this %$#@#$ puzzle, so tomorrow only read some or post but no quality analysis. Fortunatelly I switched off computer during weekend and manage to have a great time with kids, it was worth it.
- I also think that there is too much guessing but that's maybe because we haven't seen the obvious clue.
- The new picture (high-rez) is not a clue but helped many people. We stopped working on wrong path (jpeg glitch which showed as text in the painting)
- With the new picture (.tif) you can see brush strokes, you can see how she painted it (the order) and even though I'm not sure you can spot some mistake she made and fixed (see the first flame, bottom right, inner track => Looks like it was a purple flame first and changed to a red one).
- It's not bad PR to have an unsolved puzzle. The most famous puzzles were unsolved for a long time.
- Don't burn out on the puzzle, if you don't see anything take a break, come back to it later.
