amen! - are we not the luckiest people in the world??...even at the end of a long struggle that doesn't quite turn out...still better than spending that time doing aything else!!!...right guys?...sort of like the old adage.."a bad day on the golf course is better than a good day anywhere else"..
Hard to explain this to someone who is not an artist, isn't it? I know exactly what you mean and it what I feel also. I really enjoy your very positive comments on other artists work and I try to do the same. Seeing the way others visualize and depict their surroundings is very much an enjoyable and mind expanding venture. What a miracle to be able to pick up a paint brush and express your feelings on the canvas. Very much a labor of love and very relaxing work that is good for the mind and body. This will be my "poetic thought" for the day. I guess I'll start looking for some oranges for the next challenge. After a meager start with my potato-like pears last month, I am really getting into these still lifes and the challenge of the composition and chiaroscuro light effects. Stu
Stu, Gary, Bob, thank you. It's true I do work at it...if you can call doing what you love to do 'work'. Actually it just pulls me along and I'm so fascinated to find out what works that I simply can't resist : )
Dee, I looked at this again after seeing Bob's and Gary's comments. Some other things I like about your work are your rendering of cast light and your lost and found edges. This is a really nice painting. Stu
Dee you have a wonderfuly distinctive style. I love the soft edges (mystery) and your draughtmanship is of a very high standard, those shapes are well executed. You obviously work hard at your craft.
Love the fresh colours, the atmosphere and the beautiful connecting shadows.
Dee, wonderfully soft effect and nice composition. Stu
Thank you Jane, Dania, Susie and Li. I really appreciate your positive comments.
I like it Dee. I like your composition, light effect, value variety, sharp line jug contrast round shape grapes and pear. The beautiful grey background and table get a touch of reflection of the colour of your setup things. The graduational change of the color and value of those translucent grapes , you did it so skillfully. I like your workshop5 pears. this one is just as nice and joyful as his brothers. Nice Job!!!
