And we're so glad that you do!

… and these are the colors of the real world: the space where artists live and make us dream to live in too.

More magic, Casey!
And to think some people can't see colors at all. Nice to know that some of those who can know what to do with them so well.

Many thanks to my friends: Katherine, Jean-Baptiste and Sam.

Donna T said...

Beautiful! Thank goodness you do not see like a camera!

Donna and Sara: I'm glad you commiserate on this. It is a funny view up the hill, but I am trying to own it.

...I'd like to BE there...and the next best thing is just drinking in your painting of this place...wow!

Hello Casey,

Unfortunately, many painters whom I follow regularly do not show progress over time. You, however, seem to improve exponentially at times, and your work is a joy. I, too, see the colors you do--perhaps because I also live in the Pacific Northwest, where colors are so vivid and muted at the same time. I just can't paint them the way you do! Thank you,

Ann Isaac

Celeste. Very kind of you.

Hi, Ann. Very happy that you left a comment here, and a very kind one at that!

What I really like about this are the very stark colours counterpointed with the muted ones. So perfectly done!

Thank you, Karin!
