Very nice painting, Tom.

Thanks, y'all. As requested...

Tom,

What a beautiful painting! It has so much atmosphere, it makes me feel that I am there.Your lovely edges and soft color transitions are just wonderful.

Another painting, so well done. Congratulations!

[Tom Edgerton]

Chris, thank you. The backgrounds look a lot more rendered than they actually are. I value massed and edited a lot.

Alex--They asked for separate portraits, to their credit. They let the boys determine how much they want to mirror each other in life. The mother may have steered clothes, but the shirts were two different shades of light blue. They are more consciously posed than I usually like to do, but I designed the paintings to be hung either together or separately. (I don't think the plan is to hang them together.)

Tom,

Along with all of the other comments I'd like to ditto and convey how the temperature was the first thing that struck me. It is soaked in the outdoors and covers the warm and cool spectrums beautifully.

And what a subtle touch.

I wish that I could see these in person.

[Enzie Shahmiri]

Tom, I just realized how wonderfully you have handles the "teeth". Just as John pointed out, the temperature and may I add overall feel strikes the senses first, that all else becomes secondary. I hope that what I am trying to express is making sense?!
