Isn't it great that we can share our thoughts with other artists in other parts of the world. These pieces are all wonderful. They each have their own color scheme that is especially enticing to me. You bring so much creativity to your scenes!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05600673251180423439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518549190511397920.post-44874342557800291312010-09-21T18:09:57.863-04:002010-09-21T18:09:57.863-04:00Jerry....you've left me words to ponder tonigh...Jerry....you've left me words to ponder tonight. <br />Seems to me that the scene or location can sometimes influence the mood.<br />I need to think about this. <br />Thanks<br />RubyRubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06097711103500084389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518549190511397920.post-71434240042714014882010-09-21T18:08:19.102-04:002010-09-21T18:08:19.102-04:00Thanks Jennifer.

Maybe this time of looking back has been beneficial.....I do need to back up and take this hard look before I move forward.Rubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06097711103500084389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518549190511397920.post-6948134321755215682010-09-21T17:58:04.150-04:002010-09-21T17:58:04.150-04:00Thank you for such a moment of peace at the end of...Thank you for such a moment of peace at the end of the day. Frost and fog ... paint the enchanted land. I have a view from home and fog always settles along the river ... making the trees ghosts ... I'm not a landscape painter much, but you've inspired me to try to capture one of those moments on canvas. Photograph never do enough ... I think something of the artist always ends up in a painting, thence the difference between a photographer and painter. <br /><br />How do I do it ... when I'm in the scene, I become the scene. Painting a tree, I become the tree. It's obvious from your sketches you do the same. Just stay with your sight and gut.Jennifer Wadsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01708453942225373936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518549190511397920.post-16154272888055952802010-09-21T16:30:35.175-04:002010-09-21T16:30:35.175-04:00Hi Ruby, love your paintings and the explanation
a...Hi Ruby, love your paintings and the explanation<br />as to how you captured what you did! I am pretty convinced that these "fleeting moments" are dependent on the mood of the observer rather than what the environment is doing. In my travelling days I liked Spain best, probably because I had a girl friend there! A beautiful sunset is always prettier when I am in the mood to receive it!Jerry Carlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024087888949143035noreply@blogger.com
