I love it. Light patterns are fascinating--but then, of course. That's what painting is about. Wyeth was a master--and yours is pretty masterful too. Your feathers are your feathers in your cap. This rendering is very sensitive.Linda Rothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833417183469551153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-11089314373561634462013-11-23T06:10:55.044-07:002013-11-23T06:10:55.044-07:00I honestly thought at first that yours was a Wyeth...I honestly thought at first that yours was a Wyeth study!

I also wanted to tell you, in case you hadn't figured it out yet, something about the "prove you're not a robot" thingy. Remember when you told us we could type in any ol' numbers and they would pass, as long as we got the letters correct? The other day, I tried just IGNORING the numbers, and that worked just as well. I've replicated the experiment, and it seems to work. Just type the letters and don't even put anything for the numbers!Meredith Adlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15527906823778153381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-45205453167573088792013-11-22T15:59:07.219-07:002013-11-22T15:59:07.219-07:00Love your window painting, gives me a good feeling...Love your window painting, gives me a good feeling.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06592451071109351862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-62123615953100443202013-11-22T00:55:18.961-07:002013-11-22T00:55:18.961-07:00Very beautiful still life art works !!!Very beautiful still life art works !!!MYSTELIOS https://www.blogger.com/profile/04586221161231975293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-42271411437994445462013-11-21T21:58:17.087-07:002013-11-21T21:58:17.087-07:00Your window is every bit as pretty as Wyeth's ...Your window is every bit as pretty as Wyeth's windows.

I'm also really glad to have discovered your blog. I love your watercolour style, so bold and expressive. I also really love the way you use oils, again such expressive brushwork and colours. Unfortunately, the hospital has not done with me yet, health issues continue to check my ability to work hard and improve but I'll keep trying!! I'll be following you from now on.

Windows always provide a gateway for me - to light, to views beyond the immediate room, or even reflecting what's in the room. They can also add suspense, longing or any number of thoughts or questions the viewer may have or pose.Carol Flatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280091225563623507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-1361927823542053902013-11-20T09:19:09.090-07:002013-11-20T09:19:09.090-07:00I also love the light through windows.
