I am always trying new ways of painting and approaching new subjects. I try to put last on the list of my considerations - "will someone buy it?" Painting for me is very personal and cherished time. "I take money for it, but I don't do it for money." I know many painters that when considering a painting or subject, the first question for them is about commerce. I am privileged to be able to exercise my God given gifts ( no matter how humble ) knowing that I am free. What a blessing.
I really like this painting Andre. You have captured a mood in a distinct sensitive fashion. Thanks for posting on my Blog and its a treat to meet you through your outstanding work.
