I REALLY like your work! "we" meaning you have a gallery that represents the work of others, or you alone are the artist ? I'm impressed with your frontispiece here -what is the title? Everything has to have a title for me whether it's self-explanatory as this one is, or not. "From sea to shining sea -" "a Lion among Men"- whatever it is, it's good. What size is it? Was it commissioned? I notice that you have a commissioned piece in your gallery section here. You've got great work for prints. I'm listed as Artist-Craftsman, which I am, but my first loyalty is to and love is for the intricacies of Mixed Drawing, Crowquill and Ink, Watercolor-transparent, and Gouache. I usually describe my work as Impressionist, which it is because that's what the public understands and relates to, but my best work has been judged Expressionist because it is what I understand and relate to! As a child I worked in black and white which my teachers thought was disturbing! Little did they know that Pencil and Graphite was to be my entry into the world of Fine Art!
