The Duet

Thank you, Sharon! Your words mean a lot.

Alex, this is lovely. I've been so busy this summer I've missed some gorgeous work. I like the intensity of the boy's face and the spatial tension between the two figures, as well as your wonderful brush strokes.

Thanks, Julie! It's nice to hear from you. I understand what it's like to be busy. Time seems to pass all too quickly. So I really appreciate that you took the time to make such a nice comment. Hope all is well with you.

Recently I heard that this painting was accepted into the Allied Artists of America's 94th Annual Exhibition at the National Arts Club in New York City.

It is my first figurative piece ever to be accepted into a juried show! I want to thank everyone on the Forum who responded to this thread, because it is in a large part due to your positive reaction and encouragement that I decided to enter this.

It's wonderful, Alex,

I have always liked your realistic style, it is so refreshing in this Age of Photo-realism.
Congratulations and good luck with the show.

May you go on to win a prize as well! It is a lovely painting.
