I always enjoy seeing paintings of mine in other people's homes.

Aren't we lucky to be able to buy different styles of pre-gessoed canvas! <br /><br />XOBarbaraBarbara Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342757136485853833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7855482737695202500.post-68844688856048417082011-05-21T09:28:28.492-07:002011-05-21T09:28:28.492-07:00Hi Nicki,

Then we ate in the dining room and there's a portrait of the owners' son done years ago when he was 12 that also makes me happy, because that's almost 10 years ago and I still like the portrait although my style has changed a lot.<br /><br />It's odd though studying your own older work. But then the conversation, food, and wine were so good that I forgot all about it.<br />That's also great.<br /><br />XO BarbaraBarbara Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342757136485853833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7855482737695202500.post-43862605103148793992011-05-21T09:25:34.548-07:002011-05-21T09:25:34.548-07:00Hi Linny,

I liked doing a long thin one, that attached to a normal rectangle. Now the prevalent "style" is square, and I'm painting on those and enjoying them a lot.<br /><br />Thanks for your kind encouragement as always. Love your recent paintings.<br /><br />Take care,<br /><br />BarbaraBarbara Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342757136485853833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7855482737695202500.post-84394151772053603622011-05-20T09:54:48.900-07:002011-05-20T09:54:48.900-07:00Hi Belinda,
