Artist's Comments

I LOVE the banjo this is a 4ft by 3ft oil of me and my banjo, despite how well it looks like I play, I admit, I suck at it, but I do try now and then, I hope to master by the time I die, we'll see

very nice painting, i love the expression and playful mood it portrays, i also enjoy the earth tones you used, sounds like a big painting, is it on a board or a canvas? either way, well done.

This is a fabulous piece, I love the tone of it as well, and the colours make me think of a warm summers evening..

:omg: Wow, this is awesome. I love the whole thing, but a few things really stand out, like the floorboards. So well done and realistic. The shadows on the floor are great too. I like your feet and how they're not just flat on the floor, but each raised with the toes doing a lil something different. :lol: Great. :nod:

Also, big muscles! :o

Thanks so much for a critique that is longer than "wow", I get a lot of compliments on the feet which is interesting considering that they were a last minute addition before painting, I think they say more about the character than the rest of the figure

I love this. It's so reflective of an early American genre painting. The light and sensibility are wonderful.
