It has a completely different energy to it, and while I know you are happy to have completed it, I'd say you also created something very fine.Kris Cahillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01940677144487682227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614658792212403547.post-38137103718164848752008-02-01T12:42:00.000-08:002008-02-01T12:42:00.000-08:00so what happened?Does she want it now depicted as ...so what happened?<BR/><BR/>Does she want it now depicted as Italy during the Axis occupation?John M.

Your final is still quite lovely and different as it depicts more landscape. I'd say it reminds me of my Tuscan holiday.

I always thought the original version was good, but I think this final version is fine too. <BR/><BR/>I am sort of indignant for your sake, because your client was so demanding and couldn't accept the artwork as it was.<BR/><BR/>I hope you get a good fee for this, as you really deserve it, you've gone over and beyond the call of duty.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043376053971475659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-614658792212403547.post-20223343923908229302008-01-30T09:02:00.000-08:002008-01-30T09:02:00.000-08:00Yes!

Dali up top - the lake dips down a slope and transcends seeking a level - hinting of the Dali painting where the clock melts.<BR/><BR/>The newer paintign also pancakes and this two dimensionality makes it seem more abstract - thus, modern.<BR/><BR/>If the client prefers moder art - if she has a modern leather couch - she will be very pleased.<BR/><BR/>My two cents, if they have cents in New Zealand.<BR/><BR/>A few weeks ago I saw a movie on TV about an American woman who moved to Tuscany when her husband left her and it did remind me of your painting.John M.

All the houses are appropriately Tuscan too, as are the trees. Great detailed work on the fields, I think I remember you put a lot of work into those!<BR/><BR/>Great to see the finished work.Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676624646066417262noreply@blogger.com
