Dear Francis, I'm glad to see you haven't changed your settings and you still allow other members to comment on your art. This work is fantastic. I thought it was a photo. As always, my friend, your work is inspiring!
Artist Reply: Thank you,I love your comments & it's very important to me 'cause it inspire me to do better each time.....
Beautiful painting of the old quarry early in the morning when there is still some mist rising from the water as the sun is just peeking through the trees.. Love the birds flying across the scene so pretty, and the crystal, clear, calm waters, reflecting all the shades of green around it ... Gorgeous watercolour painting Francis!! :o)
Artist Reply: Thank you Les, you must be a 'nature lover' ....nature is part of our life & work as an artist.
the thing that gets me with your work is your birds you capture them so well like a true pro but above all you take us on a journey of discovery stunning Francis
Artist Reply: Thank you Stanley, the birds add a little life in the picture.....
perfect work francis.. classical and mood filled.. i smile every time i see your trail of doves... ( i made them doves in my mind, are they a certain kind of bird?) joyful work..
Artist Reply: These birds are cattle egrets or herons if they are in the marshes...and the common pigeons if they are in the street or a top of the roofs.
How many greens you have in this paint? All the graduations I can't count them. I loved Singapore but I saw tooo little. I was young and was looking at the pretty Singaporen ladies, quit natural, LOL.
Artist Reply: I think during the 60's most of these place were swamp and iti's not posssible to reach to these area...
