Luis that's a great portrait.

There is real sofness and feeling in the painting. When an artist has skill like Dali it is easy to slip into a very foirmal painting. This shows his skills very well. You can feel the sofness of the woolen suit.

Excellent.

You guys have some great stuff. I enjoyed seeing Dali being "normal" in the painting of the woman. The Bierstadt is also fantastic! Here's another English/American (besides Wood)

Children Of The Mountain by Thomas Moran

What a great painter. These English/American artists were so well travelled too.

Look at how loose and wild his work is compared with the others.

here's another by Moran.

Index Peak, Yellowstone National Park, 1914, oil on canvas

His Scottish stuff was wonderful too.

Wonderful again.

The Ceasar treatment is very interesting and the clouds are very Dali.

Very educational.

Hi Roger and Luis Miguel,

I just came in here to look at Mrs. Ruth Daponte again on page 3, and then I saw Sir John Dunn here. I remember you posted another Dali portrait last year of a young woman looking out a window, he really does portray a "feel" for the people, a "same room" feeling, as I just posted in Roger's other forum, portrait art is much more human than photography. Dali has a reach-out-and-touch way of painting people, timeless, as if they're right in front of us always.
