I love seeing the enlarge image and studying those fat juicy strokes of paint you use. Beautiful.

I also love saying, "Umpqua".

Thanks, Sheila. I've been working to increase the "weight" of my brush strokes, but I've just started using a softer series of flat which'll eliminate a lot of 3 dimensionality in the paint. Maybe the final answer will be using a combination of brushes for different effects in different areas.
