I appreciate your kind words but the portrait of Barack alone and the portrait of Michelle alone came out much better, in my opinion. Many thanks and regards from Miami. :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hi: :hi: :cute:

Very good, I would like to have a long discussion with you about impressionism. I love you style it's what makes you, you, but the detail on some of your work is impressive in one way but for me and just for me a little unnecessary. I like to let the viewer or person looking do a little more work. I say this not as a criticism but as an observation. Your work is wonderfully bright and colourful and I love it, I would like to see you have a go at say a dark moody wet one, but I know you hate so of mine for that aspect of my work, It does liberate your mind and colour palette, they don’t have to be evil rock stars or wet running ones. But a bit away from say a firm style a little darker or less bright. I only am saying this because I like your work and would like to see you paint that way. :grin: :grin: :8) :thumbup:

 Jeanette - 16/11/08, 16:56 reply
Brian, I appreciate you trying to help me and give me advice. I know that this portrait is not my best work, as it needs more shadows. I have my own style and you have yours which I admire. With all due respect, I don't like to do dark, moody wet portraits. That's just the way I am. I like pastel colors and light, bright colors. Thanks anyway. Best regards from Miami. :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hi: :hi:

 brainfree - 16/11/08, 19:11 reply
No problem, I hope you didn't mind, you know I like to encourage change. I love your work we are different, but equal. I like pastel colurs too! best regards to you from Welsh, rainy Wales. UK. 'da nos' Welsh for good evenning :8) :grin:

 Jeanette - 16/11/08, 22:10 reply
Brian, I didn't realize that you live in England. We have cousins in Cambridge! Da nos my friend! :blowkiss: :hug: :hug: :love: :hi:

 brainfree - 16/11/08, 22:17 reply
England that's like saying that you are Canadian. I'm Welsh we have our own Boarder, Parliament Capital City and like England an equal part of the United Kingdom. My son lives not far from Cambridge. Also we are Celts like the Scotish and Irish. The English are Anglo Saxons from Europe in 1066. :8)

Thank you for the Civics lesson, my friend!! LOL!! We are so happy that Barack Obama won the Election and that we are going to have this intelligent and wonderful, and good man as our new President! :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hi: :hi:

I hope you wount be disapointed in Barrack as we were with Tony Blair. :8)

 Jeanette - 16/11/08, 22:33 reply
Brian, Now with Barack, we have HOPE for the future again whereas with McCain it would have been the same status quo. Obama is a good person and thinks of the middle class. He will bring real change to this Country. :blowkiss: :blowkiss: :hug: :hi:
