Yes, Kim, I really enjoy seeing your work, too. Your landscape reminds me a little of the work of Eliza Drake Auth, whose landscapes I really admire for their strength and clarity. You can "google" Eliza on the internet to see her work. You seem to be one of the few of us who actually do portraits, landscapes, and still life!

Thanks Ngaire and Alexandra. I do dishes also!
Actually, all these talented artists here who think they cant do landscapes (or one of the other genres) are just wrong...in my opinion. I really believe if you can paint one, you can paint the other. Maybe you are better at one because of a stronger interest...but I just dont believe they couldnt do it with just a little practice. It's all in the 'seeing.'

I agree! If you can paint a portrait you can paint just about anything. If you are interested in something, you will perfect your skills. I'm one of those people who paints portraits and landscapes, but not still life. In the course of this discussion I realized that in fact I do paint still life in my portraits.

I do not paint differently even if I try my hand on an abstract. This is my "Angel."
ca. 60" x 40"

Again I have to agree with Allan, whatever I paint, I paint the same way!

Here is an example. I'm sorry about the photo from Washington, It was too dark and when I changed it in my pc the background changed a lot.
Below there's a painting from Lake Clark with the owners in Alaska.
I always preserve my stile. When someone sees my portraits, landscapes, still lives or figures, they will always know it was the same person who painted them all.
