This is my first time seeing your work when I came across Lovers in Santa Croce while searching for a composition to study for class. I must tell you that I enjoy it to the upmost. It makes me dream in such a manner that I can see myself there. Thank you for your style and I look forward to seeing more of your work.

It was a genuine thrill to see the Poppies 1996. Wish I could view it in person. Even better ~ afford it!

I LIKE THE WAY YOU PAY ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS, I LOVE YOUR ART VERY MUCH.

Your still lifes (lives?) are contemporary and new even though I have seen plenty of them in art history books. Yet, the painters of centuries ago would surely think they are contemporary, too. I'm afraid, this is what most artists, art theories, art teachings and art movements cannot grapple with. GOOD WORK!

Hey guy,I like your photo realistic style. Too many people just throw paint onto canvas these days and call it art. Nice to see someone actually take their time. Keep it up. Steve

Thanks for the inspiration.

Your blog entry made me laugh. Memories of muddling through art school and starting off in graphic design/illustration. You have found a great balance to work and art, I am also trying to arrange the work-at-night thing because it just makes more sense. Congrats to you for finding the magic balance!
Reena
Your oil paintings are so realistic, its hard to believe!!! Great work!

Great work....Matthew
Do you draw your subjects out? Do you grid them? I detest precise drawing and prefer a general placement and then go from there...I would be very pleased if you would take a moment to peek at my work and let me know what you think.I have had no formal training....I am not of your high caliber yet but hope to be there someday....thanks so much ...Cheryl Ann Hardy Premiere Portfolio..oil paintings
