Thank for being the first (and hopefully not last) Aussie or order my DVD! :)<BR/><BR/>David - whaddaya think I'm chewing on right now? Love that stuff.<BR/><BR/>DakO - plenty of young people into art, but very few into watercolor (with a few notable exceptions like Jenny D)..have you noticed? And whose fault is that? The Institution of Watercolor, naturally. Time for change....and yes we can! heheh<BR/><BR/>Joel - that's a photo! Looks like it would make a good painting though, huh. I got lots of good reference stuff over there, and all these comments about that shot are getting me interested in painting it. Just might get a wild hair and go for it, thanks for stopping by.<BR/><BR/>Bill - it was a good week - sold the demos and another painting I brought with me, and made some friends. And got to stay in that beach hideaway which was first class - $2100/wk rental and we had it for 10 days on the house! Too mahvelous for words.<BR/><BR/>Helene - thanks for the post, and nice to meet you...I'll be over to your blog shortly.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07901533179774248604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-60817879793201613812008-05-20T09:10:00.000-04:002008-05-20T09:10:00.000-04:00great blog and fine painting ! congratulation on t...great blog and fine painting ! congratulation on the award (post bellow)hjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825054336470744829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-6423563105030135682008-05-19T09:24:00.000-04:002008-05-19T09:24:00.000-04:00Nicholas .. man on the move - molecules in motion....Nicholas .. man on the move - molecules in motion. Nice post on Ocean City. What a cool venue. I suspected you might be on the road spreading the knowledge and lo and behold .. Ocean City. Sounds like you had another killah experience and a good crowd.. and if sold out then it was a crowd. Another notch on the 'ol pistola for you and the painting posted is a trip. The field of depth is amazing and I'm wondering if this was your demo at the workshop. Glad to see your dance card continues to be full and you're having fun my friend!William K.

Looks so isolated and quiet very much like the one beach we stay at often.<BR/>The Board Walk on the other hand is like nothing I've ever seen here. <BR/>So you're aiming for a younger demographic now?...just when you least expect it..LOL<BR/>Pleased to hear you had a good time with this one.

She is a big Shriver's saltwater taffy fan. They are on the board walk. I got her a box of taffy along with a Shriver's stuffed mascot toy (made in China but of course!).David Lobenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17550343255310931339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542897110279300858.post-85099481165889835482008-05-18T18:23:00.000-04:002008-05-18T18:23:00.000-04:00Sounds like you are enjoying the workshop experien...Sounds like you are enjoying the workshop experiences Nick!
