As for the stones, I love the freedom that comes with working that way--glad you appreciate the differences in approach.Don Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497657029761169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674898426369236660.post-85824405224336624862009-11-28T08:50:52.537-08:002009-11-28T08:50:52.537-08:00Don - brilliant effect bringing the element of tre...Don - brilliant effect bringing the element of tree bark into the calf's hide. Also the stone paintings below are a nice departure into the abstract. Excellent way to play both sides of the coin.William K.

I enjoyed seeing your blog and work.<br /><br />You're right, changes may be large and dramatic or small and incremental, but it's important for an artist to feel they are traveling new roads.Don Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497657029761169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674898426369236660.post-39099603321574420222009-11-28T08:35:23.310-08:002009-11-28T08:35:23.310-08:00Hi Sheila--thanks a lot.

Isn't that the joy and secret to painting? Travelling a new road!<br /><br />I'm a Follower for sure!<br />Good Painting!<br />Bruce ShermanBruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3674898426369236660.post-85006561147073900282009-11-28T04:53:10.037-08:002009-11-28T04:53:10.037-08:00Hi Don, yes I can see your continuing interest in ...Hi Don, yes I can see your continuing interest in light. I can see it too in the boulder paintings. This cows series is great though - real portraits in context, just as I like them!Sheila Vaughanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.com
