Another welcome --

Your posted images are inspiring. Just to look at the first exquisite piece, first -- "Bruce B. Childs", I believe it is (is that your father?) -- I'm very impressed with the gutsy willingness to go for that composition. I'm a huge fan of slightly unorthodox, silver- or platinum- rather than golden-mean composition, and I think this one is enormously successful.

Please continue to share your gift with this like-minded community. It means a lot to those who are reading -- as you've indicated that you've done -- and it will mean a lot to you in the process as well. (My personal guarantee is in the mail.)

Casey, these are wonderful paintings! We are lucky to have you here. Welcome!

Hi Casey,

I lived in Utah (Salt Lake City) many years ago and I had no idea that Utah fostered such talent. Your work is very nice and I am looking forward to seeing more. Welcome!

Hi Casey! Welcome to the forum. Your paintings are wonderful and I look forward to seeing many more.

Casey! Great to see you on the forum! I am excited to see where your career takes you!

Right now I am wishing I would have stayed in provo by the mountains. It's flat and 95 degrees here :(

So glad you decided to de-lurk Casey! Great stuff - looking forward to seeing more from you.

Casey,

Welcome!

Such beautiful painterly and accomplished work from one so young!

I will look forward to your posts.

Thank you again everyone for making me feel so welcome to this forum and for the many kind words about my work.

I've been quite busy painting lately, not complaining :) , but haven't been able to contribute to this forum as I'd like. I just completed a husband & wife portrait commission that I'll post in the "Unveilings" section (to get myself going on the posting train), so please check it out.
