That was a terrible time and I never painted either in that class. Learned it from good old Walter Foster books....and staring at a million paintings by other artists of course.<BR/>I'm still learning to do water which I think is harder than anything I've tried so far. I'm amazed at artists who do it well, let alone who can make it look realistic at the same time.Ron Guthriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09173474868558565132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35145936.post-86734984894286170992007-04-26T12:54:00.000-07:002007-04-26T12:54:00.000-07:00Details in both these pieces are amazing as is the...Details in both these pieces are amazing as is the palette.Leslie Anne Peasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756929211836868444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35145936.post-1171616799913374662007-02-16T01:06:00.000-08:002007-02-16T01:06:00.000-08:00Sounds like you're Dad and you have been around th...Sounds like you're Dad and you have been around the water a long time Larry...got to admire that. Fishing in Alaska is a risky business but can really pay well. You must have had a great time up there during your workshop. I'd love to go there someday. <BR/>Your large painting still has my jaw dropped. You really nailed that water Larry. I'm always watching! <BR/>Thanks for the kind words.Ron Guthriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09173474868558565132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35145936.post-1171538740190890522007-02-15T03:25:00.000-08:002007-02-15T03:25:00.000-08:00I share your love of boats, Ron...my father having...I share your love of boats, Ron...my father having been a fishing guide on Lake Michigan, and both he and I serving in the navy.<BR/><BR/>One of the treats for me painting in Alaska last summer was to see all the seining boats.<BR/><BR/>You've got serious skills, and I like the variety of your subject contect!!!
