Often the paintings I like best (both mine and those of others) are paintings executed in a very short span of time. There is something both original and unique about the freshness of gesture or the surprise of a quick splash of color or line chosen by instinct rather than deep contemplation. Like one's own handwriting, these works are impossible to forge.

Thanks Julie!
that is so true Patrice! it's the honesty of the work that connects with the outside world, :)
Honesty - yes! Love my articulate friends...
Wonderful energy in this, Patrice. Spread those talented wings and soar, girlfriend.
Thank you DJ - I am flying...
Patrice, Hope the painting continues to be productive for you. Someday, I'm crossing state lines and we're gonna have a cuppa something amidst all that beauty you create. Hugs, Deej
