A real crisis

[Ngaire Winwood]

Thanks Joyce for your kind words and thoughts, they really touched me.

Your finished painting feels so vibrant and I can feel the inspiration you gained from your shoulder perch on Marvin's shoulder. Don't lose that this feeling of confidence that inspired you in this painting. You have tapped into the 'real' energy of creativity. It is amazing what a change of mood inspiration can bring to one's art.

I remember in 2007, I was fortunate enough to attend a David Kassan's, workshop, his confidence inspired me for months.

Keep up the great work, I look forward to seeing more of your accomplishments.

Well done, Patty!! That's really lovely.

And yes, as one who is in the thick of child rearing ... I just keep telling myself the same thing about a "season for everything." Although I do get to plod along here and there, so I can't complain too much. I love painting so I die a little if it goes too long between spurts.

Patricia, this portrait is lovely.
Looks like you had fun. I can also feel the pleasure of color that you might have experienced on this piece.
Congratulations !
