Rob, thank you for the kind compliment on my video efforts. I'm so glad you commented so I could follow the trail to your terrific car paintings and landscapes. I'm amazed that your approach is different to each genre. Would love to hear about that!
Hi Rob, answering the screaming trees obviously was the right answer...both of these paintings are just full of the splendiferousness(? you know what i mean) of these beautiful trees laden with blossoms,both paintings sing with life & joy.
You've captured a kind of shimmering light together with the way the blossoms shiver and shimmer - they don't last long, the slightest breath of wind and poof they've gone. Nice one Rob.
I know what you mean Rob. After the dullness of winter a colourful subject is hard to resist. Although the cherry blossom, in the second painting, could be overpowering, I think you have avoided that by making it more about light than colour.
my pleasure Susan really enjoyed your demo. the difference between my cars and landscapes is because sitting in the studio,i can put myself into it, i've been busy with those cars since i was twelve,i know them inside out. when i go out to paint the landsape,for the last 5 years,nature does my head in,it is so big and there is so much to learn...

They don't look too sweet and all that, and they don't tell me you were tortured. In fact, they sing a "bloody" good tune.

Well, I'm glad you "gave in" - I think the colors are poetic!
Rob - I love them both but the top painting steals my heart. Beautiful work.

that is nice to hear Dianne,sorry about the winging,it just i've got this battle of reality vs creativity going on...i will find that balance one day!
what made it worse Chum is,that apple tree is right in front of our house,every morning it is waving at me!
yes only two weeks Sheila,it is a now or never situation,now it is on to the bluebells...
with me it is always about light keith,at least that is what i'm trying to do,paint the light on a subject,not the subject itself.
poetic,i like that Helen,
