Re: Fourth Turning
This has to be spectacular in it's full size. Reminds me of colors Monet would have used! Nice going Todd!!!

Re: Fourth Turning
This piece shows a positive development over your earlier work. Though the nod to the Impressionists is very clear continued painting in this vein should push you past that style into something original and fresh. Keep at it!

Re: Fourth Turning
Looks great! Is this from life? A picture? Or memory? Either way, a winner.

Re: Fourth Turning
Very quality painting. Monet is there for sure. If it were mine I would add few hints of butterflies in the air

Re: Fourth Turning
Not much to say that differs from the kudos of others. This is very beautiful.

Re: Fourth Turning
The only other thing I can add to what's
already been said:
I love that I can see some knife strokes
here and there. That tells me the texture
is there,,,and I can imagine how it feels.
And it feels great.
