Merci beaucoup!
Hey Mate!
Hi Wendy!
A...Ola amigo!<br />Merci beaucoup! <br />Hey Mate!<br />Hi Wendy!<br />Always wonderful to see your name up on the screen! I am glad you also like #3! I am glad anybody likes any of them! Such great support! Thank you for all the wonderful things you see in my art! Nice!<br />I love seeing the word "cobber!" Much of the time my eyes play tricks on me and I see "cobbler!"<br />So I am your art cobber and art cobbler! (When I was a little boy every Boston neighborhood had its own cobbler shop! We use to bring our shoes there to get them repaired! Talk about recycling! I can still smell the leather and more from so many years ago!)<br />Ate logo Wendy!<br />Miguel aka Michael Who Wishes He Could Speak Many Languages!art by Michael Perchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06767323223269323935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6461232101588857746.post-48034153605353401662014-05-30T04:23:14.478-04:002014-05-30T04:23:14.478-04:00Thank you Celia!

Even though I've come in after the denouement and already know which one you gave her, I also think number three is the best of the four. I love the techniques, textures and colours you achieved in all of them but somehow number three captures a great city mood. The greeny blue tones topped off with the smatterings of gold give the city a wonderful vibrancy. I can see why she loved it!!<br />I'm just about to check out your latest post!<br />Your art cobber,<br />Wendy Wendy Barretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809722045189710005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6461232101588857746.post-57319152968977746662014-05-25T20:00:17.833-04:002014-05-25T20:00:17.833-04:00Hello Joan!

I check you out daily and always try to get back to comment! I am a couple behind but I am catching up!<br />Thank you so much for visiting my blog and always writing great and supportive comments. Makes me so very happy! I guess #3 is the people's choice. Remarkable that is the one I gave her! Your beautiful words make me so happy! "My wonderful creative mind!" Thank you! I so love to paint from my heart and soul. Sometimes things happen and when they do it is thrilling! I am so glad you "see" what I am trying to do!<br />Thank you Susan!<br />(Oh, sometime back, you finally got your snow! A bit late but when I saw the storm on the news I thought of you!

What a wonderful gift any of these would be!!!

I am especially in love with version # 3 as, for me, it seems as if Boston is pulling together, emerging into a bright future, reaching toward that magnificent sky. Its wonderful to see your process and take a peek inside the workings of your wonderfully creative mind!

Beautiful bright colors in the 1st painting, I love the drips which add a modern and loose feel also in #3. The second painting is smaller but has great texture and I love the blue hues. The last painting has beautiful painterly textures and a mysterious drama. All have your signature Michael energy and love of Boston! She will be forever moved looking at any of these gorgeous works!

Il témoigne votre grande générosité.<br />D'autant plus qu'il n'est jamais simple de peindre pour quelqu'un de cher. On voudrait que l'oeuvre soit plus qu'à la hauteur de notre espérance. C'est aussi prendre conscience que notre ressenti doit rejoindre le sentiment de rendre heureux une personne unique... en atteignant la perfection. Une alliance délicate et risquée ! <br />Je pense que vous avez réussi un sacré challenge.<br />Je suis certaine que cette amie a dû être énormément émue...<br /><br />Merci de partager avec nous la progression de l'ensemble de votre travail. Je trouve cela très intéressant... Toutes ces couleurs qui naissent et qui font connaissance...<br /><br /><br />Gros bisous ♡martinealisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055152925986659065noreply@blogger.com
