Re: Great American Quilt

Lovely piece! I have the feeling that, this being my first post, my opinion might not matter much, but for what its worth: I love the detail and the amount of time going into that always shows. I love the playfulness and the lighthearted atmosphere as well. Well done

Re: Great American Quilt

Hey Wilfred, that is very funny that you spotted that about my website , It only went off line a couple days ago and the reason being that in a year i never as much as got an enquiry about some work , so the hosting was up and the domain name also, so I decided against keeping it running.

Basically it was also out of date. I no longer do portraits in colour pencil since I have discovered acrylics 8 months ago . so all my albums on the website were misleading to anyone that may have viewed them with the prices and sizes.

I use the same name on Facebook as my website and this is where I get all my commissioned work . Feel free to check out my page Keith Anderson Portraits.

I do plan on putting the website back online in the future when im happy I have enough content to view, and also im still only learning to paint so im in no rush .......thanks again for taking the time to look at my website even if it wasnt online !

Re: Great American Quilt

Wilfred. Do you know what I have done? I have put all your work into my favourites so that I can look at them over and over again with all their funny little details , their great colour and your inimitable humour. This will be joining the rest. It is marvellous.

Re: Great American Quilt

Thank you so much to susme48, Margaret 59, vmrs, and Chammi for your comments!

Keith... I think we're in the same boat, that's why I don't have a website. I only keep a blog for people to find me online, it is free so I don't have to worry about any payment coming due.

Oh Chammi... I'm so honored you have faved my works! Thank you so very very much. It made my day when people let me know they like my paintings, it just made all the long hours of work all the more worthwhile!

Here's my fave quilt the 'Mayflower,' the images I missed out in the orig post. Enjoy!






Thank you for looking!

Wilfred
