can’t understand a word you are saying …..love the painting…....where do you get the inspiration? PS. had a woman very interested in one of yours in the gallery today….but hubby put his foot down about spending the money.

Rose, you are too much!!! Thank you… your support means a great deal. You are also a wonderful friend.

LOL!!! That’s ok Noel, you don’t have to understand my Italian… i can talk to you about this later if you like. My inspiration – this is based on the zodiac sign of Cancer…
I think we should both ‘cross our fingers’ and hope that a little feminine persuasion goes a little way to change his mind!
Anyway… if this doesn’t come about… it was very nice and important i feel to know there are persons who like the work enough to consider buying – for me this is very important – thanks Noel.


Thank you Jared, nice to have you drop by with your thoughts, your continued support is appreciated.

Sandra, Your support has been wonderful, thank you so much for leaving your thoughts here.
I am enjoying this interlude and whimsical indulgence... perhaps it is my way of trying to 'relax' before getting into some other more challenging projects - whatever form these may take.
To have you say these lovely things leaves me very encouraged, and dal cuore - from my heart, i thank you.
Love
Patricia

Thank you Sylvia. :)


Adriana, it means much to have your support. Your ribbon series is un adoro! I hope in the cooler autumnal months we are able to meet up at Lindsay’s place… wonder through the tranquil gardens looking at his beautiful sculptures and breathing in the mountain air which i miss.
(((HUGS))) Gorgeous girl.


Thank you so much Marion… btw… had a look at your beautiful works in ‘the flesh’ the other day at the Monthly Exhibition over at Oatley… just divine!
My best wishes to you always.

...ethereal, mystic... the deliberate and skilled use of backruns/backwashes in the moon, PG, to allow these natural properties of watercolour to "find" or "work out" crater-like forms and seas on the Moon works so well..you have pinned the *timing* of water-droplet placement (and droplet size) into near-dry washes in order to estimate the diameter of resultant blooms (crater-like forms) so very well.. additionally (imo) these lunar forms feel balanced in that there's neither too many nor too few ..Another great piece in this series!! best wishes,
wayne

Hi Wayne
Your continued support (of this Moonlight series of paintings and my art here) as well as your insights into what I like to describe in Italian il gioco d’acquarellothe game of watercolour provide me with much encouragement. Your skill in this medium practically and also in theory and your ability to eloquently describe what happens on the paper during ‘the game’ is something I very much admire, to have this support ‘courtside’ from such a person as yourself makes me feel truly blessed.
Sempre con gratitudine
