Alex, thanks. Those are some very good points. Yes, my goal is not necessarily to paint "loose." My goal is not to paint "tight," either. My goal is to paint better. With more economy, and more expressively. I think your suggestion to paint landscapes is a very good one. I'm also going to do some still lifes in the coming weeks, for no other reason than to learn. I'm confident I will eventually find my own "language."
