Thank you so much for your comments o...Hi Celeste,<br /><br />Thank you so much for your comments on this piece. I was hoping I would hear from you because you know the whole story first hand. I really appreciate your educated words. I'm happy with it and I don't think it's scary... and I think I might see the face, too, now that you mention it.... (hmmmm, that might scare some people!)<br /><br />You have to let me know when you will be in town... I'd love to take you to the studio to show you what I am up to with this mysterious piece. I think I just finished it, but I have to keep it under wraps for a couple of months!<br /><br />Hope you are well and may 2011 be a creative and adventurous year for you.Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333869924278210044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449698803200850980.post-22846837546598303832010-12-28T08:59:26.194-08:002010-12-28T08:59:26.194-08:00Well you've done it. And, wow, what a result ...Well you've done it. And, wow, what a result you've acheived. I know this piece would be very impressive if I was able to see it in person. You've achieved a realistic rendering of a tree and yet the abstract elements that are within you're painting are leaping out at me. I can see a face within the belly, very clearly I might add. And that is of no usefulness at all, that comment. Just sayin'... Your brushstrokes, thick paint, lush application, composition, and use of colour are your signature, Nicki. Your work is strong, giving your images huge impact and intensity. If some people find that scary....Looking forward to your new painting project that you're keeping under wraps. There is so much to look forward to in the New Year!Celeste Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17404293440821952928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449698803200850980.post-78565613380557622922010-12-24T18:57:26.034-08:002010-12-24T18:57:26.034-08:00Thank you Artist!Thank you Artist!Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333869924278210044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449698803200850980.post-79228981142935171582010-12-24T10:37:30.226-08:002010-12-24T10:37:30.226-08:00wonderful piece!! love the colors! and yes art is ...wonderful piece!! love the colors! and yes art is way better in person!Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818666887474851547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449698803200850980.post-16865298928903375932010-12-20T10:33:44.844-08:002010-12-20T10:33:44.844-08:00Thank you Don!

I think self-doubt is a natural part of any creative work, over time it can become an unexpected friendly tool.<br />Have a nice weekend!Pierre Rabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06264796176623668124noreply@blogger.com
