Thank you so much. Coming from you I really take it as a compliment. You have a wonderful & unique title. I particularly like the one with 3 boats together on the 2n page.

Dear Dave,

What wonderful paintings of the sea and boats. One can take a deep breath and inhale the essence of the salty brine from them. Wondering how you are liking Montana, though rich in scenery of a different type and  hope you get down to the sea again.

Thank you for visiting my blog recently and for your recommendation of M. Graham Walnut oil based oil paints. I will certainly try a tube. I am a beginner. After 20 years of painting, I'll still be a beginner.

I sure hope you spend some time writing your memoirs as you most certainly have lots of fascinating stories.

I have to share with you, I sold my first painting yesterday.  I am so excited to have a piece of me beginning out on a journey on its own.  It is just so cool.  Thanks for being so supportive and kind to me as I get started.

Thanks for noticing the new work. Nope, the move has yet to happen (April 7).  I still have to work just as I still have to breathe.  How are you lately?  Anything new?   me

Greetings from Port Williams, Sequim, Wash. I see you have set ashore at the port of Libby. My most memorable trip through Libby was in 1975, on the top of a Burlington Northern box car. It was a beautiful day, and it seemed like I was riding on the top of the world! I'm off work, my left wrist is about totaled out. I have been working on boats the last 5 years in Port Townsend. Mostly fancy stainless steel, and aluminum work.  My interest in art seems to stay ashore though! your work is very good, and it sounds like you got a good thing going.....Craig
