| Man I'm glad this one is finished! I don't think
I've ever spent this much time on one painting ever! I really liked the concept and the look, but underestimated the level of detail involved. A month of weekends to finish it! Now onto simpler things for awhile. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks! |

Jim, You outdid yourself. This is a phenomenal work. The drawing, the execution, the color, and even a beach scene. Kathy |

Oops! Sorry Pearl, I haven't checked back here for awhile. We've got "Arts Walk" coming up in downtown Olympia, so we've been getting things ready at the gallery. It's tomorrow, so hopefully we have a good crowd! Thanks!

| Whoa! How did I miss this one?! Jim, this is your best yet, in my opinion. What I see in this one is time well spent planning every detail and color for an alluring painting. It has elements of realism and yet, it has some graphic and a little abstract qualities as well. If I may say so, I believe you've moved up on this painting (and your others weren't too shabby to start with!) and I applaud your patience on this one. Excellent. |

| You really get the feeling of the angles and distorted view in this one, and the colours of the seaside shining through as a bonus..All your hard work paid off...Best regards ..Steve |
