Hi Wendy! I am thrille...Hello My Aussie Art Buddy! Hi Wendy! I am thrilled you like my work! So happy to hear from you! Best news is my shoulder is getting so much better. Like seeing "very Michael Perchard!" Made me smile! I am glad you like the flowers. I too am amazed that we have such varied seasons here in New England. Few months ago all covered with wondrous cold deep white snow and now covered with wonderful green foliage and beautiful flowers! Love all the seasons! Still trying to get humming bird photos. Love them so much. Their wings actually hum when in flight. Sometimes so close very loud!!!<br />Good luck with you book. Eager to know when you are finished!<br />Take care Mate!<br />Your USA Art Cobber!<br />Michaelart by Michael Perchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06767323223269323935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6461232101588857746.post-1750272246013988592015-07-12T09:05:34.900-04:002015-07-12T09:05:34.900-04:00Michael, you are very brave to push through the pa...Michael, you are very brave to push through the pain! You would never guess from your beautiful work that you have been suffering with your shoulder. I love all of these paintings and was particularly taken with the fiery colours in the ocean - very Michael Perchard!!<br />All your flowers are looking stunning - hard to imagine that not so long ago the flower beds were all thick with snow. What a sweet fox! It is a shame that the hummingbirds are so hard to catch on film but I have a very nice image in my mind, and just knowing that you have such amazing feathered creatures visiting you is delight enough! <br />I hope you get some relief from that shoulder soon!<br />Take care Michael!<br />Your Aussie art buddy,<br />WendyWendy Barretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05809722045189710005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6461232101588857746.post-33852801751739203382015-07-10T00:19:36.932-04:002015-07-10T00:19:36.932-04:00Hello Julie!

Now I need to make sure I don't over do it and re-injure my shoulder! I am thrilled you like my work David! I am so glad you noticed the misty murky atmosphere! I so love to paint layers and glazes over dry paint to get that effect! You seem to know my work so well. I tell anyone who is willing to listen how much I love to make the painting emerge from the canvas! I am so off the chart happy that you used the exact words that I often use to describe my process and work. Thanks for your support David! I so hope your get some much needed rain soon!!!!!!<br />Take care and I will keep painting and NOT paining!

You are certainly right about the healing process as we age! But I am happy to report I am on the mend! Not able to do much swimming laps for exercise yet but hopefully that will come back soon!

Your strong feelings for the sea are clear on your energetic canvases and Boston is coming along great.
