Usually when seeing your work I'm thinking, dang why didn't I think of that? or wow, could I even DO that?? You're a watercolor monster, no doubt about it, and your design and compositional sense is second to none.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07901533179774248604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-90495233468649531462008-12-15T14:16:00.000-05:002008-12-15T14:16:00.000-05:00Nick . . . .this is not only wonderful, it is fant...Nick . . . .this is not only wonderful, it is fantassssstic!!! In the 20 years I have been painting, no single artist has garnered such strong recognition at such an early place in their art journey as you. And for good reason: You are opening up new territory for all of us. I was just talking with "a very high official" at NWS about you and your art and how you are setting new directions for us all! <BR/><BR/>Man!

Out in public amongst the heavies and fans.. and soon-to-be fans. The layout and selections are enough to make one happy for a long time - or at least until the next publication.
