Tom,

What a lovely gentle painting of a young boy. It seem to me that you took extra delight in the background which is handled with such delicacy and radiates such a soft summer light. It makes me feel the same way I did as a girl, dipping my feet into the edge of a wooded river in summer.


Mischa,

You are. Tom is a well respected award winning painter who gives workshops all over the country. I think any critiques you have should be PM'd to the artist. It says very strongly on the section that no critiques are allowed.

I am not sure being that this is a photo and the camera does not always capture the subtle nuances. I hope I am not out of line.

Tom,

You need no affirmation from me, but the wonderful thing about this painting is it brought back one of my fondest memories of my youth.
