I was so pleased that Jeff sent along the news about your art blog. I am glad to hear you have joined the wonderful world of working artists. I am teaching a few workshops here in St. Louis and many of the folks who sign up for them are like yourself, returning to a love of art in retirement. I enjoyed seeing you work, especially the adobe pieces. As I told Jeff, you handle the reds and yellows really well. My visits to that part of the country have not been many, but your paintings evoke what I remember of the scenes quite vividly. I expect you are a fan of Georgia O'Keefe whose work I have admired for decades. My dad, Ben took up painting at my urging when we were all still in Chicago, me fresh out of school, and had a great time with it. Keep up the good work. <BR/>LInda Green/Metlzer<BR/>Website: optimaxdesign.com, click on Missouri Artists GalleryLinda Green-Metzlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13573590342884725569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6770277846591515435.post-51589500324962390682007-08-31T00:59:00.000-05:002007-08-31T00:59:00.000-05:00This is really cool, Dad.
