Most of you know me as a tight realist painter. Now after my stroke I am dabbling with impressionism. It is easier, since my hand feels like it has a winter mitten on it.

I knew if you went with a bit looser than your usual style it would still have the well placed darks, and realistic color and textures and well handled light. I can still see this as one of your paintings. Great work!

https://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1431363February 1, 2023 at 12:49 pm #1500589Well, being contrary as usual, I’m not going to say “Good to see you painting again” because you make my attempts appear meager- I’m not painting with a winter mitten on- I’m painting from the bottom of an avalanche!
I’m sure you feel as though your talent is in your hand but it’s your EYE! You see details and shadings I cannot visualize unless I’m looking at one of your paintings. Not to mention you seeing beauty in things others miss but you are able to bring that beauty to us. AND your work is still perfect no matter what you may judge it as!
Thanks for bringing your gift to us!

It is a little looser than your former style, but I like it. It has your touch! You still have the magic.
