Oh my, Brian! I can feel my head swelling again! You are so kind, my friend, and your support is very encouraging to me! Thank you so very much! – Pat

Wouldn’t that be fun, Donna! What a nice thing for you to say! Thank you very much, and for the fave as well! – Pat

As the expert you are on lilies, Gerry, I really appreciate your kind comment! Thank you! – Pat

Thank you so much, Barry – I do appreciate your “stopping by”! – Pat

It’s amazing how much color is to be found in white objects, isn’t it, Bev, especially in white flowers. I really glad you like this one! Thank you! – Pat

Steve, I really appreciate your comments, which are always so very kind! Thank you! – Pat

What a sweet thing to say, Jane! You are so kind! Thank you! – Pat

Hi, Doug, and thank you for your nice words! I guess I never really think of a technique as I paint – I just “go for it”! By the way, it’s very nice to make your acquaintance! – Pat

Hello dear Brian! It does take time to reply to people’s nice comments, but if they have taken the time to stop and write them, I feel I want to tell them how much I appreciate their doing so. And, their kindness gives me energy and inspiration to pick up a new sheet of paper and begin again. I can truly say I’ve never received so much affirmation on my work as I have here on Redbubble! I am so very grateful for all the new friends I’ve made here – I love each one! And thank you once again for all of your very kind comments, my friend! You are HUGELY encouraging to me! – Pat

Hmmmm, “hitting the keyboard” while lounging – or lunging? Either way could result in some interesting words! But it’s the sentiment that counts, right?! I bet you could come up with a great cartoon on the subject, Brian, and you were looking for a new art project anyway, weren’t you?!

Love your humor, Tom! And your compliments, too! Thank you! – Pat

I really appreciate your nice comments, IngerMargrete! Thank you so much! – Pat

Hi, Amy! Thanks for the visit, and for your nice comments! I am glad this one appeals to you. And I appreciate your lovely scenes of Kent! Some good friends of ours also live in Chatham. – Pat

Thank you, Carol! They’re some of my favorite, too! – Pat

Thank you, my friend! I appreciate your taking a look! – Pat

Thanks very much, Mariaan! And I’ve just been admiring your paintings of wildlife – they’re wonderful!!! – Pat

I know what you mean, Mary, having to go from front to back, so to speak, in changing from oils to WC. I think oils are much easier in that they can be painted over numerous times to correct an area if needed. But the simplicity of watercolors is a big plus – if you’ve only got even fifteen minutes or so, you can quickly pick up a brush and go to work. Setting up for oil painting, unless you have a dedicated studio, can take quite a bit longer, as you might know. But I do hope you will keep up your watercolor work – it is so satisfying in spite of the many challenges. And thank you for your very kind comments, my friend! I do appreciate them! – Pat

What a nice thing to say, Jane! Especially after I just now “crashed and burned” on a watercolor I was doing. Well, that’s how we learn, right?! :D I’m so pleased if you learned a few tips from the interview. How long have you been painting? I’m sure I could learn some new things from you, too! Thanks again for your sweet comments – I genuinely appreciate them! – Pat

Hi, Jane—I may give it a second go, but sometimes “rejects” can drag us down. The jury’s still out on this one. I’ll wait ‘til later tonight to see if I can revive it. But I thank you for your word of confidence, my friend! – Pat

Thank you, Paula, I really appreciate that! – Pat

Oh, Liz, thank you! I’m so pleased this one appeals to you! It was lots of fun to paint – always challenging, but fun at the same time. – Pat

How nice to meet you, Tom! And thank you for your kind compliment on these lilies! Thank you as well for adding me to your Watchlist – I am honored! – Pat

Thank you so much, Scott! And I’ve been enjoying your wonderful photography! – Pat

I’m so pleased you like it, Helene! Thank you very much! – Pat

Oh, Ken, what a very nice thing for you to say! I thank you very much! And I’m so delighted I’ve just discovered your wonderful works here on Redbubble! I am an anglophile at heart, as well as an animal lover, and so expect to enjoy a lovely visit through your beautiful portfolio later this weekend! And I’m so pleased if some of my work can bring pleasure to your life. That is why I paint. – Pat

Hello, Rod! Thank you for your special comments on these lilies, my friend! I had fun with this one, incorporating harmonizing colors, so it makes me very happy that it appeals to you! Pat

Thank you, Poupoune, I’m so pleased you like it! – Pat

Thank you, Mike! I so appreciate your stopping by! I appreciate your wonderful images so very much! – Pat

Wow, Malcolm, now I’m really blushing! I’m so glad this painting appeals to you, my friend! – Pat

I’m so pleased you like this one, Ingrid! Thank you! – Pat

Thank you, Chante! These were lilies from our garden several years ago. Two days ago I had some prints made of it, and one sold before I ever left the shop! I was amazed! I’m glad you’re trying your hand at them – they’re really fun to do, and I wish you great success with yours! – Pat

What a nice thing to tell me, Gouzelka! Thank you very much! – Pat

Thank you, Elena! I am so pleased you like the lilies! And it is a pleasure to place you on my Watchlist! I am glad you are on RB! – Pat

Hello, Svetlana! Thank you for your lovely comment on this painting! Sometimes it is hard to paint white and make it look real, but always there are shadows and different amounts of light so we can paint more colors into the whites. Thank you for looking at it! – Pat

Thank you, Julia, for taking the time to look at this painting, and I’m very pleased that it appeals to you! Where do you live? – Pat

Wow! Thank you so much Debbie! You are a real encourager, my friend! I’m so very pleased this one appeals to you! – Pat

And thank you, Debbie for the honor you’ve paid me by adding me to your Watchlist! I’ll try to do it justice! – Pat

Thank you, Lenora. I tried hard and I think I found what you might have been referring to. It is interesting how “after the fact” we can find things in a painting that resemble something else. I appreciate your stopping by!

How kind of you, Dar! Thank you, and I’m glad you enjoy this painting.

What a lovely thing to say, Maxy! I really appeciate your kind words! It makes my day! ~ Pat
