ah well Jamie I will just have to see some of your small works to compare! I’ll give you a call when I get back.

Cheers.

Thanks, Dana! When you look at a very large painting, viewed online at a much, much smaller size, it always looks more refined than if you’re viewing something closer to actual size. Although I’d like to take credit for greater finesse and delicacy, the size difference between this and my very small works, both viewed here at the same dimensions, is probably accountable for the differences you note!

It would be great to see you if you can break away and come up for a visit. Have a wonderful trip!

Hi Jamie,

This is a sprighty little tree! Your paintings have more of a delicacy and fineness of touch now (or maybe my eyes are just getting better!)

Good luck on the reception. Depending on what work is like when I come back from Europe, I may be able to pop up and see you!

Cheers.
Dana

Heidi, thank you so much. DP is a great motivator for me as well!

Jelaine, I appreciate that you stopped in to comment! I’ve painted from this location so many times. It’s a great spot no matter what direction you look, in any season or type of weather. I even interrupted a flock of turkeys there once. There’s a covered shelter in case of rain. That’s come in handy too from time to time!

This is just lovely. So soothing and vibrant. I can feel the breeze and the warm sun in this work. Very impressive.
