Wish I could take a composition class from you! Love the way you framed Ken's head in front of the muted background. His intent gaze leads me to the beautifully rendered hands where I linger stopped by the book and directed back into the painting by the white pages! Just can't stop looking at it!Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03123711998908894938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4183610651867409486.post-89220906707066970572009-12-27T10:07:56.788-05:002009-12-27T10:07:56.788-05:00Oh, I just saw your artwork on Katherine's sit...Oh, I just saw your artwork on Katherine's site yesterday!

Speaking of your wife, I still haven't seen that painting over on Following the Masters. I think it is wonderful! These two would undoubtedly look fabulous hanging in your home and a true testament to the love of good friends. Your work continues to both awe and inspire me!Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4183610651867409486.post-84014304076184716942009-12-16T23:32:04.098-05:002009-12-16T23:32:04.098-05:00To quote Emeril..."BAM"!
