"As a parent that has spent many hours on the road driving a child to and from athletic events, these two paintings reminded me of heading out at the crack of dawn to an event (BT I) or coming back from an event at the end of the day (BT II). Of course, this impression is subject to the way the color pallet of my monitor renders your painting but the impression was striking and immediate. Great work!"<br /><br />I valued his personal impressions. To me this is what art is all about, touching another individual to invoke feelings from another time.AprilRimpohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16678848782570505524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1105528714465186619.post-58585014935499285132014-03-28T14:42:14.174-04:002014-03-28T14:42:14.174-04:00Thanks, Johanna.

Although both are good paintings, I do like the second one more as it portrays a bright, sunny day. It has a nice complimentary color scheme as well.Johanna Celluccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02105086805733244807noreply@blogger.com
