Bob, I definitely see your influences reflected in your work, but not in a copycat way. Your appreciation for those artists is apparent in your subject matter and style, but your style is all your own. Beautfiul painting of a strong, loving woman.
Thanks Peggi, In addition to talking about artist work who I feel have influenced me I will be also doing some one on one interviews with artist whose work and point of view I appreciate. I hope to ask questions that are not usually asked and get insightful responses. Stay tuned.
I see qualities in all three that are definitely visible in your work, especially Diebenkorn. Lovely painting!
What is the most interesting here is that fact that the little man … just like in Paula Rego’s little adult people who makes the adult size people look so vunerable. So psychological!

Ambera, thanks. I would to be able to see and paint like Diebenkorn. His resolution are so simple and clear of voice.
Hi Angela, Paula is one of my favorite, is she from your home town?
