I'm going to post at least two paintings a week...minimum. Most will be 5"x 7" to keep things small, but like the first one...they will vary. I'll be including a link to Ebay to bid on these. Any that don't sell will be designated on this blog, and can be purchased for the minimum of $100.00

I've been an artist since age 5, when I remember drawing an airplane better than my older brother. It was a bi-wing with a propeller, (not that I'm that old... it was 1957 and it was a racing plane), and it was encouraging because up until then, it was the only thing I could remember doing better. I kept at it, and now nearly 50 years later I'm still trying to improve my creative process. Now I realize you never get better than anyone else... just more unique to your own style, and become the best painter you can be.

I couldn't get your enlargement to load, my computer was too slow, something, but it doesn't matter, what I can see without the enlargement is incredible, as are all your pieces, Mick!
Beautiful -
This is a funny thing, Its a mystery to me how I can love your work so much and at the same time be so frustrated by it. I enlarge your post and study the brush work and find myself so overwhelmed. I want to do this! But I don't know how - its almost painful -
This is a very beautiful scene. Even though you cropped the view there is a lot of depth.
Your work continues to be outstanding. Your ability to use good darks and lights highlight many of your paintings.
