Please forgive that I abbreviate your name.

This is a beautiful work. I especially love the way you treat the flowers! Surreal and of course I recognize them!

The building is so charming and I love the trees behind. Just wonderful!

It gives a feeling of being clear and clean. You chose a very appealing perspective. The whole scene is charming. I like the small details and the clean lines of the building and the painting of the shrubbery and trees with washes and brushwork. Your architectural lines are changing, becoming more representational and clean. I like this style as well as your older style of freehand drawings. Your washes are light with details entered with by applying more saturated color. You’ve tied it all together very nicely.

somewhat cleaner.

I saw the building and it just felt like it wanted to be a little picture. It was just so cute sitting there at the edge of the park.
