Suzy, delighted to be your friend. Please post some of your urban paintings. I'd like to see them. I travel fairly frequently to the "north country"; my son is a pediatric surgeon in Milwaukee (actually he's in Afghanistan for three months with the Army). My wife is back visiting my daughter-in-law and our 3 Grandkids this week. Stu
The pastel of me that I use was not done by me. It was done by my friend, Dr. Chouieb Saidi, a professor at the Art Institute in Atlanta, Georgia. I wish I could say it was my work but it is not. I do not do pastels and only work in oil. Saidi did a great job! He has a Masters of Design from the University of Tunisia and a Master Degree and a PHD Visual Arts from the Sorbonne University and did portraits in Paris for 12 years so he has done thousands of portraits. He works really fast; the portrait only took him about 20 minutes.
Lovely pictures Suzy. I like your use of green and also the way you have kept your paintings simple and uncluttered. Look forward to seeing more of your work.

Hi Suzy, I am just getting started on this site too. How long have you been painting/
I am from the US also. I am hoping to meet other artists who are wanting to learn more about painting too.
