Joyful, playful & exuberant – and I love the pup!

Many thanks, John. A good beach day had by all, and of course you’d love the pup.

I hope that you will take it as a compliment but I see shadows of both Picasso
(but sweeter – although he could be sweet when he wanted) and also Renoir but much more dynamic. The sea and sky are ALL yours and so is the white horse peeking ! Great work.

Thank you Vera! I’m never put off by comparisons of my work to other painters, and your observations seem very accurate to me. The only things I ever faulted Renoir of Monet for were their failure in the oomph department. I like dynamic!
For several days the woman was alone on the beach but I thought, no there’s more going on here, there’s probably a horse, and birds. And oh, definitely a dog happy as she to be there. Thank you again for the complements.

Yes, for all the supposed activity that their paintings (R. and M.) are presenting to us, they are pretty static …
I myself like Cezanne because in him at least geometry and expanses of color take over and that creates its own dynamical counterpoint.

Love it. Such exuberant joy.

Thank you, Gunta….I did this last week in lieu of actually going to the beach, a sort of time-travel, remote-viewing thingy. I was laughing the whole time I painted the leaping doggy, and whenever I look at him.

The dog had the same effect on me! Reminds me a bit of my pup.
