Lovely painting Mike! Love those yellows amid the blues!
Hi again Joe!... This is a little gem for sure! Captures the casualness and introspective atmosphere ... that "morning joe" offers all of us!
Love the painterly... almost abstract quality of your application of strokes... contributes to making the person ambiguous... any one really!
A great piece! Enjoyed it immensely!
Good pastelling!
