The sky and the trees look like they are in movement, while the lower section is quite still. Lovely painting!

I love this one John, perfect just the way it is.

Who inspires you as an artist? Just curious. Van Gogh? Gauguin? Someone else or all of the above?

Re: Blue Soul 36" x 42"
Van Gogh for emotions, Matisse for intelligences and Bacon for presentation these are my favorite. there are many others but these three are at the top of my list. thanks take care john
