I just realized that the *doors* in your paintings are also gifts to your audience. I visited your website and I read many of the older posts and the comments. I'm a fan now and will become a regular reader. <br />Best wishes,<br />Jim CAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11461354288131558726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748277869905059222.post-10122353253136003452010-02-06T00:49:19.537+02:002010-02-06T00:49:19.537+02:00This comment has been removed by the author.Alexander Bujakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07596142124850457094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748277869905059222.post-82830839826366362152010-01-08T02:46:52.702+02:002010-01-08T02:46:52.702+02:00Happy New Year, Dianne!

I love the colors you have chosen (ones I also adore) and it seems as though the blossoms are dancing...you understand movement so beautifully.<br /><br />The description of your process is wonderful. I love hearing about how people handle the process of their work...you are very generous to share here. <br /><br />I have never stretched canvas myself. I think I worry I am just not strong enough. I have said to my husband maybe it is something we can learn to do together. Now, if I can nail him to the floor long enough to actually help learn the process we might get somewhere! :-)<br /><br />Thanks So Much, Dianne!Kimhttp://kimrodefferfunk.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748277869905059222.post-474354488292855242009-12-05T16:33:17.627+02:002009-12-05T16:33:17.627+02:00This is truly such a unique solution to the proces...This is truly such a unique solution to the process of seeing, but at the same time trying to avoid too much realism.

It is great to get positive feedback.<br /><br />Dear Kathy, I think the discovery that I could paint from memory/imagination/intuition was a huge quantum leap. I just didn't believe I could do this, I didn't think I had it in me until I made that leap and amazed myself! The possibilities are now endless and exciting.<br /><br />Dear Liz, I would love to share what I have learnt and discovered with you!
