I love your art work. It is amazing what I can see as I look at the pictures. I do not have to analyze. It just seems to jump out at me most times. Very interesting the way a person sees something in another’s work. I wish I had painting skills. I have only tried watercolors. Writing is my interest. I am hoping to make some of the exhibits. Best of luck to you Russell.
Thank you so much, Janice, for your kind words and encouragement. I am glad that the paintings inspire the reaction they do, and you always see interesting things in the work. Hope to see you at one of the upcoming events!
Love Abstract 42, I’m immediately in the ocean, swimming toward some dancing seaweed
Love it! Thanks, as always, for the feedback.
Abstract 45 is one of my favorites. It’s all about PAINT.
