David and Robert




Hi Mari,

I've been a painting fool since February of this year, have to make up for all the lost time (30 years). You are right in assuming that I want to take my art to the highest level possible. I intend to push myself to the max.

In this painting I was to hoping to create a feeling of total happiness, so I used brighter colors and sharper lines. Blah, blah, blah. Used flowers on the tree because Robert likes flowers. When I look at this in real life it actually hurts my eyes! An experiment that didn't work as planned. I painted this in July of this year (before Angel), just haven't delivered it yet. And I'm determined enough to chalk this up to experience, customer is happy and I learned a great deal on this.

I will also take your advice on drawing from life, I need to brush up on those skills. Thank you for your comments and encouragement!
