Well




Tony, I really like this one too but I was referring to a diffrent one on your website. This is a lovely "artists' painting"-meaning one at least other artists would admire if not everyone.

Tony,

This is an extraordinary painting! I encourage you to post it in its own thread.

Your portrait is of a man I would want to meet, and whose face I would want to touch. Absolutely terrific.

Hi Tony,

I ditto what Chris said. That single stroke of lavender in the beard is such a nice touch.

Wow, those are great. I don't know why, but I always love paintings of old men with beards.

Tony, these are fabulous, and worthy of separate theads. I wish they were in my house instead of wherever they are.

Would you like me to try to post them separately for you?

Tony, I REALLY like these. I am wondering, are they quite as dark in value range as they appear in these posts? I like the sense of mystery and the sparkling highlights the dark range of values impart.

The St. Benedict painting is very dark... I did it under a really bright light and then I came out in normal light and it was really dark... but there is mystery to it. St. Benedict was a hermit and lived in caves so its suites its purpose.
