Thank each and every one of you for the kind comments on my art ! You have help recreate my spirit ! It is a little hard working my job and trying to stay focus with my imagination, where these paintings are concerned. I am among alot of talented people on this treasurenet :) Not to mention the knowledge that is shown here.

Another beautiful painting,
Do you paint freehand or do you draw outlines first?
My 2 older kids can draw, they both love art. I used to draw as a kid, but havent done any drawing since I was in about 11th grade (centuries ago lol)

Thank you Teddy :) I paint all free hand > I really do not draw that well :) I always have one theme in mind to start with and then I just fill in with my imagination ;D
 

Looking at this painting I think a good theme for one of your paintings would be like a 1700's Boston Harbor with the harbor, buildings and old sailing ships.
I also think, with your style, a slave plantation with the slaves, cotton fields, shacks and the mansion would make a statement.
 

Carolina I'm lost for descriptive words for this very beautiful work of art. I would say awesome would describe it! This one really catches my eye with the vibrant colors and the depth it shows. Excellent will fit also ! Keep posting more

Another terrific painting Marjorie, if you had not said which one was you I was going to guess the lady in Red in front of the girl on the swing. :)

Love the detail of your work...can't help smiling when looking at your paintings..

Copper You understand this painting :) that is what I strive to create > paintings that make you smile and you just want to walk into and stay for awhile ;D
 

I'd love to see one of the plantation paintings. Your style lends well for getting a lot of space and activity into one painting.
 

I just love these kinds of painting, CD. You're so talented.
