Make My Day!
Bill,
I got to see this painting in person today - and two others of yours.
I entered a show in Midland and got my acceptance letter late since I moved. The only option was to drive it there (6 hours away). I whined and groaned about it, but did not want to get the folks at the museum mad at me...so off I went complaining the whole way. I left with all sorts to mommy-guilt too since one of my children has the flu. I got in late Sunday night and picked up the local paper to see if there was anything more than the oil wells to see while I was there. Lo and behold - one of your paintings I saw unveiled here recently was on the front of the arts section! Well, you can bet I high-tailed it over to the Haley library the next morning to see these. I stayed an hour studying them...in fact the security people were eyeing me pretty heavy. There was such a smoothness to this one - gorgous! By the way, a nice red sticker was on the larger one there (in case you didnt know it sold yet).
I also saw a Harley Brown and few other names I recognized. Bill, it made my trip worthwhile.
I have a question, maybe not the right section though...but how do you get that nice sheen? They are new paintings, so you are not varnishing them? Mine look so flat in comparison.
