            Hey, John, these are really fun, and very distinctive. They all seem to have an unseen story to tell. Love the color choices, as always. My only quibble is that the first guy looks about ready to pull an Isadora Duncan! j/k Seriously, I like them a lot – well done!

                You are right there Annie – he does now that I see it. These are landscapes
                that haven’t worked out – so what can one do? I make cartoons out of them
                or try to.

                    An admirable and interesting goal- I think you’ll discover many new directions to follow. ‘Finishes’ are often necessary but overrated-

                        the energy in the first one is my favourite, the handling of the complements is inspiring. your colors always defy understanding and just connect.

                            John, I really was just kidding about the scarf thing. I actually like the painting a lot – it’s my favorite of the three – and think it adds a lot of energy and movement to the piece.
