I seem to like them equally, which is a problem, because there really is no middle ground. I've given up trying to create one, I think. Instead these days I just try to be content to do either one or the other, rather than both in the same painting.<br />Beautiful carmine colors.Jala Pfaffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186623108399217523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-57893829863412737382010-01-27T18:31:12.103-05:002010-01-27T18:31:12.103-05:00Thanks so much Astrid.

There is more out there than ever before. We are so lucky.<br />Thanks about this work...I really do feel like a neophyte with glazing. Sooooo much to learn.

I'm sure there are things we haven't yet seen happening as we speak.<br /><br />I love this work, Loriann.

So does that descriptive shoe fit you too? <br />As for slap dash or quiet.. hmmm I, at this point, love a quiet base with just a small amount of"emotional tracking." But over all I want peace. How about you?<br /><br />Hi Casey!<br />Tell me a little more about you and tenacious.<br />Come visit our Washington someday. There are a number of these nocturnes in the Freer, which is being remodeled right now so you can't see them. whaaa!<br /><br />Hi PB!<br />These painters from the past are some of my best teachers... and the best part is they are always available!<br />Thank you and take care of yourself.

But Whistler, he too was absolutely amazing. His nocturnes blow me away. Sooooo subtle, yet just the right amount. Check out this one..wow!

There are probably quite a few of us around here that know about those descriptions!<br /><br />I also agree that I love both the slap-dash and the quiet applications...I go back and forth so much about which way is my way to paint. Do you feel more strongly about one or the other?<br /><br />And, I'm so sorry to read about your health! I hope you are feeling okay?
