Beautifully done with a wonderful feel similar to the delicate feel of the Magnolia impressionistic paintings of Martin Johnson Heade. Your own approach to impressionistic style is so perfectly "reflected" in the light on the leaves. So very beautiful!! Your other paintings on the site (Wistful, Reclining, Dancer at the Bar, Slumber and Azalea are all so well done!! Please continue to support the arts by making your art!!

How kind of you to say! My daughter is a big fan of Martin Johnson Heade. I personally love John Singer Sargent's work so I'm always striving to capture the light the way he would. I'm so pleased you liked this piece. Right now, I'm busy working on my drawing instruction video series, "Drawing Secrets Revealed," but I can't wait to get back to painting. I'm particularly interested in landscapes right now. I'll definitely post more as I paint them. Take care, Cliff!
